pyfirebirdsql released new minor version with small fixes

The driver is hosted on github https://github.com/nakagami/pyfirebirdsql
First thanks Hajime Nakagami for your job
I really thinks that we need to put our effort on this driver so it became the Firebird Python driver instead of Kinterbasdb
here few points I saw :
– need a change in setup.py so install work
– transactions parameter we need the possibility to send custom transaction parameter buffers, for what I saw today transactions are (isc_tpb_write, isc_tpb_wait, isc_tpb_read_committed, isc_tpb_rec_version)
– need documentation
– can we extend it or create a new module to work with trace api ?
….
ps after a small change in setup.py I will certainly package it for
Mageia and Fedora

Fb Trace Manager v1.5.1 released
The version in 1.3 branch passes all of the tests and works with latest version of Django
ps:One little observation, the trunk version just works with django 1.2.x.
Also i have tagged the release with release 0.52 in git
The cpan tar is be available here http://search.cpan.org/~mariuz/
There is only one test left to be fixed
Thanks Stefan for the help and fixes 🙂
Why it was needed and rationale:
Firebird sql forked from interbase and needs a new namespace for the drivers too also the drivers needs to be separated some things in the api and sql dialect are different and sooner or later there is a need for this separation also the DBD::InterBase seems to be unmaintained
Here is the chage log so there will be no need to add stable Firebird 2.5 ppa in Ubuntu Natty just follow the install instructions.
Thanks to Damyan and all who contributed to solve this sync bug
