OK, did anybody actually make the effort and report those bugs/fixes
upstream to the Ubuntu team [1] or even better the Debian team [2]?
Without that, I doubt that there'll ever be a "stable" situation where
these things can be taken care of by the distributors, which won't help
a wide spread use or the reputation of VPython.

Particularly a report on how to fix it would likely make it quickly into
the releases.
