 ACK. I meant downgrading would have been better, as we are not yet
convienced that's something is there out in the wild. Only beacuse this
way me missed two mails to the bug (when it's closed, b.d.o drops
additional mails). Btw, nevermind.

 Want to make a bet? :) OK, in the process control industry, which is my
primary workplace, I am in the center of operators, directors, techs and
mechanicians -- ranging people in background and education, it's much
better if you can talk with them calmly why their idea is not suitable
or just need arrangement with other parties.

 It seems _not_ the case. All Python related packages are correctly
installed, md5sums on string.py[co] are correct, and he can run your
mini test of string.ascii_lowercase.

[ ... thanks for your help on b.d.o and attributes ... ]

 OK, #242740 is still misterious could not look further, #224319 should
be safe now, #242713 has a proposed fix, waiting for your or user's
confirmation (ie needs testing). I haven't check #240601 either. :(
