well, dear upstream: that's exceedinglu unhelpful. '2.1.4' is plastered
all over the normal/visible/everybody-would-expect-that-is-usable
release tarball, dirname, setup.py, everywhere except
that one crucial spot in __init__ - seriously? that's your official release?

he has. you're responding to a debian bug. i'll now go back to doing
the 'old "mod the code"'.
