there are still 22 rdeps for ipython http://sandrotosi.me/debian/py2removal/ipython_1.svg and 6 for ipykernel http://sandrotosi.me/debian/py2removal/python-ipykernel_1.svg what other option do you see? > What is your preferred option? it's not about what is _my_ option, it's what's best for the other debian packages currently depending on those pkgs -- Sandro "morph" Tosi My website: http://sandrotosi.me/ Me at Debian: http://wiki.debian.org/SandroTosi Twitter: https://twitter.com/sandrotosi
