Package: python-support Version: 1.0.6.1 Severity: wishlist For some time already, python-apt has support for python3.1 and newer. We currently use python-central which has basic support for python3.1 with nomove option; but it maybe useful to switch to python-support in case it becomes Priority: standard (and reportbug in standard already uses python-support) and python-central becomes optional (no standard package currently depends on it).
This needs multiple changes:
(a) pysupport.py should not reject unsupported versions
if they are explicitly listed in debian/pyversions.
(b) movefiles should scan all usr/lib/python[0-9].[0-9]
instead of scanning only the directories of the
supported versions
Alternatively, adding python3.1 to the supported versions
and excluding it for all and 2.5- or similar should work
too.
