Package: python-support Version: 0.6.3 Severity: important While working on thuban I used this control file:
http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-grass/packages/thuban/trunk/debian/control?op=file&rev=0&sc=0 introducing the alternative field Python-Depends: python-wxgtk2.6 (>= 2.6.3), python-sqlite (>= 0.4), python-xmlbase The resulting Depends field is: Depends: libc6 (>= 2.3.6-6), libgcc1 (>= 1:4.1.1-12), libgdal1-1.4.0, libstdc++6 (>= 4.1.1-12), libwxbase2.6-0 (>= 2.6.3.2.1.5), libwxgtk2.6-0 (>= 2.6.3.2.1.5), proj (>= 4.4.1-1), python2.5-xmlbase, python2.5-wxgtk2.6, python2.5-sqlite, python-xmlbase, python-sqlite (>= 0.4), python2.4-wxgtk2.6, python-support (>= 0.2), python2.4-xmlbase, python-wxgtk2.6 (>=2.6.3), python (>= 2.4), python2.4-sqlite, gdal-bin (>= 1.3.2-1) Note that it depends on ALL alternative versions for 2.4 and 2.5 - which are the pyversions I declared (2.4-). It should depend in OR from those alternatives, not requiring the installation of all damn per-python version modules AFAIK. For instance in this case: python2.5-wxgtk2.6 | python-wxgtk2.6 python2.5-xmlbase | python-xmlbase python2.5-sqlite | python-sqlite So currently the Python-Provides field is simply unusable IMHO. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-3-686 Locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Versions of packages python-support depends on: ii python 2.4.4-2 An interactive high-level object-o python-support recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
