Were did you read about this ? So if there are no more GPL problems, and if there are no need to have 2 pythons at a time, we can add a Provides: python (=2.0) to python 2 and recompile all our modules for python 2 right ? So there is no need for 2 versions of each module. > still need both of them long enough to allow package maintainers to > switch to using /usr/lib/python2.0 instead of /usr/lib/python1.5, if > nothing else. Well, I think we need some mecanism allowing us to keep modules on the system, even if we change the interpreter. -- Jérôme Marant <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ----------------------------------- Debian Activity Page: http://jerome.marant.free.fr/debian -----------------------------------
