Comment 20 for bug 1682934

I followed the test case in the bug description and installed python version 3.5.1 in /usr/local/bin and did receive the traceback from the description when reinstalling python3.5. I then modified my /etc/apt/sources.list file to enable -proposed ran 'apt-get update' and then installed python3.5 from zesty-proposed.
