I have put together a set of experimental Python 1.5.2c1 packages. To use them with apt, try the following line:
deb http://master.debian.org/~flight/python ./ They are also available via plain http (this time, I included a proper index.html so that it should be possible to download them with recursive wget as well): http://master.debian.org/~flight/python/ New features: * Python 1.5.2 release candidate 1. * libpython1.5.so reworked. Please report any anomalities! If I don't get any negative feedback, the next potato packages will use a shared libpython for the first time in Debian history ;-) * break sketch 0.5.4. This is a problem with the new multi-threaded Tkinter and sketch' Pax modules. Sketch' author will try to fix this, in the meantime sketch will have to provide an alternative python-tk-nothreads package. Not yet: * The great package renaming. * jpython * python-doc 1.5.2. Is html enough, or should I also include python-doc-ps and python-doc-pdf. The next release of JPython will have a free license. Since there are some build dependencies on non-free software, JPython probably will go into contrib at first. Nevertheless, this will make it necessary to have a common python library package (python-lib ?). Again, any Gregor
