Runtime Error in sensor.py as of version 0.5.11 of RPi.GPIO

Upgraded to version 0.5.11 of RPi.GPIO and am receiving the following error when raspisump initiates a reading with sensor.py

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/local/bin/rsump.py", line 19, in
reading.water_reading()
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/raspisump/reading.py", line 36, in water_reading
water_depth = pit_depth - value.distance()
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/raspisump/sensor.py", line 32, in distance
GPIO.setup(self.trig_pin, GPIO.OUT)
RuntimeError: Please set pin numbering mode using GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BOARD) or GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BCM)

In the meantime you can downgrade to version 0.5.10 as follows

sudo pip uninstall RPi.GPIO
sudo pip install https://pypi.python.org/packages/source/R/RPi.GPIO/RPi.GPIO-0.5.10.tar.gz#md5=f1c67de40bf99e0612d75538b06a2181

As of version 0.5.11 of RPi.GPIO the GPIO.setmode statement in sensor.py has to be moved inside the 'for loop' in distance(self) method.

This happens because, according to the changelog for version 0.5.11 of RPi.GPIO, the 'GPIO.cleanup() unsets the current pin mode'

So it was getting unset after the first sample was taken.

This will be fixed in version 0.5.3 of Raspi-Sump. In the meantime simply downgrade RPi.GPIO to version 0.5.10 as stated above. Will try to fix by this weekend.

Issue fixed with raspisump version 0.5.3

sudo pip install -U raspisump
