Source: bup Version: 0.20-1.1 Severity: serious Justification: Debian Policy 3.5, Python Policy 3.1.1 Tags: patch
bup builds a private Python extension[0]. Such extensions are normally not binary compatible across different Python versions, so the package must declare tight dependency on the version for which the extension was built. The attached patch fixes this bug.
