[issue38889] Segmentation fault when using EPF Importer

[Sebastian Szwarc]

I strongly disagree. Python 2.7 is 2.7 -> if some new errors appeared
after upgrading between minor version this is not expected behaviour,
and therefore it means there is error in interpreter itself.
upgrading from 2.7 to 2.7 is not the same as upgrading from swift 3 to swift 4.

And as I said in another comment - I dont understand your tendency to
"minimal example" - minimal example solves nothing because minimal !=
production.
On production there is of course 3rd party code - tool is written by
Apple and MysqlDB module by another 3rd party vendor. How can you even
expect to provide minimal example in such case?

Not to mention I got no errors in code - just SEGMENTATION FAULT which
indicates python interpreter after upgrade doing something very bad in
memory management ---> this is python issue.
Or give me solution to install specific version of 2.7 that was
available one year ago on Ubuntu.
