configobj has been highly unstable these last many months.
Its last stable release was in 2014, and distributions are [naturally] packaging patched versions of newer, arbitrary commits. A request for a new release has been pending for over 6 months with no news.
This is extremely hard to code or test reliable, and it's very hard to ship code that's sure to work downstream. Find something that's maintained and satisfies our needs, and drop configobj in favour of it.
