[Pkg-telepathy-maintainers] Bug#493908: python-msn: No longer connects to MSN servers (fixed upstream in 0.3.3)

[Simon McVittie]

Package: python-msn
Version: 0.3.1-2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

The MSN servers have changed their DNS server in a way that exposes a
bug in pymsn's DNS resolution. Also, their response to the CVR command
has changed, causing additional problems.

Today's upstream version 0.3.3 fixes both bugs. pkg-telepathy are
aware of this, and we'll investigate how we can best get the fix into lenny.
