Hi all,

my apologies: I have removed userland-incorporation once upon a time in 
order to test something from other (build zone) repository (see also 
http://alp-notes.blogspot.de/2015/10/userland-incorporation-in-openindiana.html) 
and completely forgot on it.

It came out again when I wanted to test latest thunderbird package (see 
[CFT] Thunerbird 45.3.0 announcement in this list).

Someone has shared fix for this problem, and it has worked:

----<snip>-----
I don't know the proper way to solve the problem but my workaround was
to change /usr/lib/python2.7/vendor-packages/pkg/pipeutils.py.

I added to the import section:
import jsonrpclib.config as rpcconfig
and changed the offending line 412 (now 413) to:
rpc.Transport.__init__(self,config=rpcconfig.DEFAULT)
----</snip>-----

With best regards.
