Round and round we go. The people writing the dh_* snippets insist that the details of how they work, such as locations in which Python modules should actually be installed, can't be put into the Policy. The Policy editor, and those of use who don't want to use debhelper, insist that writing policy based on debhelper tools is not acceptable. This has now been going on for long enough that I conclude that the Python policy pushers really do intend to make using debhelper a Policy requirement for any package containing any Python code. -- On a clear disk, you seek forever. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
