mythwikiscripts broken? [was: Re: find_orphans.py]

A few months ago, there were a couple of reports of problems with
mythwikiscripts. They were buried in a discussion of find_orphans.py.

I too am experiencing a wythwikiscripts problem as descripted by Ian
and Nick:

mythwikiscripts will display a long list of scripts, wait for a numeric
choice from the list, and immediately go back to querying for the choice.
No file is downloaded.

I've instrumented the code (slightly) and it seems as if
script.code.keys() returns an empty list, at least for 34, the number for
find_orphans.py. I've not delved into MythTV.wikiscripts which must
define "script".

Interestingly, in the list of scripts, every entry is followed by (0).
That means that each script has size 0! This is calculated as
sum([len(c) for c in scripts[i].code.values()])
So this indicates that script isn't decoding the scripts properly.

I'm running MythTV 0.24 + fixes as produced by MythBuntu. The distro is
Ubuntu 10.04 LTS.

Is this a known problem?

| Sorry for the noise, looks like its back to copy/paste from the wiki.
