Where is the official documentation for that packaging helper?

`man dh_python2` has some, but it's mostly... in my head (looking for someone who will document all the small features like pkg.pyinstall¹ or PyDist² in the manpage)

Ah, ok.  Not unlike CDBS :-/


I noticed quite a few packages switching to it recently, and wonder if it is somehow intended to be a successor of the divided past of pysupport and pycentral, or yet another equal competitor.

I want³ all python-central and python-support packages to be converted to dh_python2 in Wheezy, dunno if others will agree to do that. At least for Python 3 we have one helper only and I updated pycentral/pysupport to ignore python3-foo binary packages.

Thanks for the input. Some reading for me to do (when I get to a more reliable internet connection than my current one).


As with the pycompat patch, you are quite welcome to apply your improvements directly to our Git in collab-maint area of Alioth. Just please commit code changes first and changelog update separately afterwards.

done (without touching debian/changelog)

Thanks!

Feel free to join our mailinglist (if you are not already) and help maintain those file too if you like :-)
