Comment (by olly):

 Currently the testsuite fails on some exception tests, which turns out to
 be a SWIG bug, fix for which is here:
 https://github.com/swig/swig/pull/137

 This issue was the main thing delaying 1.3.2, so hopefully that'll finally
 emerge fairly soon.

 Barry: BTW, packaging has now moved to collab-maint git and there's a 1.3
 branch there.  Where's Ubuntu at with this?  It looks to me like software-
 center is still using python-xapian, so presumably this change isn't
 happening in 14.04 (and I guess a non-LTS makes more sense for switching
 so you don't end up supporting a pre-release of the python3 bindings for
 years).
