AttributeError: 'SafeTransport' object has no attribute 'context'

I'm running into an error when running this code on python 2.7.9

import jsonrpclib
server = jsonrpclib.Server('https://<ip_addr>:<port>')
print server.foo()

And get the following stacktrace:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/home/lgbland/code/xmsso/venv/lib/python2.7/site-packages/jsonrpclib/jsonrpc.py", line 274, in __call__

    self._connection = host, HTTPS(chost, None, context=self.context, **(x509 or {}))
AttributeError: 'SafeTransport' object has no attribute 'context'

The same code works fine in python 2.7.6. Some underlying change in xmlrpclib perhaps?

It looks like this issue was fixed by https://github.com/joshmarshall/jsonrpclib/pull/36 and the fix is present in jsonrpclib 0.1.7 on PyPI.

I think this issue can be closed.
