Trytond_import_countries fails to update subdivisions

[dalers (Dale Scott)]

When entering parties using the Tryton client, the Country or Subdivision I enter does not get saved. I assume this is because I need to import countries and subdivisions using trytond_import_countries, and then pick from the list in the Tryton client.

I ran trytond_import_countries, it updated countries but then failed updating subdivisions. I believe this is a known error with issue report https://bugs.tryton.org/issue11128.

If I understand the issue report correctly, the workaround is to edit pycountry/databases/iso3166-2.json and add a new subdivision type:

{
  "code": "BA-BRC",
  "name": "Brčko distrikt",
  "type": "District with special status"
},

but when I examine iso3166-2.json (pycountry 22.3.5), this entry already exists!

Can anyone point out the obvious? What am I missing?

Thanks,
Dale

As the bug report says, you must not use pycountry above 20.7.3 (you will be able to update when upgrading to the future series 6.4).

Thanks for clarification. I see now the example in the issue was of the breaking code, not the workaround. All fixed.

(env) [tryton@starlord ~/trytond]$ pip uninstall pycountry
...
(env) [tryton@starlord ~/trytond]$ pip install "pycountry==20.7.3"
...
(env) [tryton@starlord ~/trytond]$ trytond_import_countries -c trytond.conf -d scc
