problems with offlineimap/git

[Marc MERLIN <marc@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

[my first mail didn't make it, it seems. Resending]

I checked out the latest version for IDLE support.

I've been having issues with it. For now I disabled the IDLE code and I
still get things like this:
   Next refresh in 106 seconds
Account sync google.com:
   Next refresh in 105 seconds

This happened while offlineimap was waiting for its next time to sync, maybe 
because the imap
connection got dropped. It seems to continue after those tracebacks though.

However, I had that during a sync, and the offlineimap just exited:

I think in both cases, it's because gmail is known to close imap connections
just about anytime for various reasons.

Is offlineimap supposed to deal with this better?

Separately, making a deb of git and trying to install it yielded:
Setting up offlineimap (6.0.3.99) ...                                           
                                            
Compiling /var/lib/python-support/python2.4/offlineimap/accounts.py ...         
                                            
  File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.4/offlineimap/accounts.py", line 84     
                                            
    yield (folder, quick)                                                       
                                            
SyntaxError: 'yield' not allowed in a 'try' block with a 'finally' clause  

However, it works after that because I do have python 2.5

My config
> grep -Ev '^(#|$)' ~/.offlineimaprc
> [general]
> pythonfile=~/.offlineimap.py
> foldersort=mycmp
> metadata = ~/.offlineimap
> accounts = google.com
> maxsyncaccounts = 1
