Quickly:
python-2.1_2.1.1
python_2.1.1 (depends on python-2.1) (does "ln /usr/bin/python{2.1,}")
python-2.1-<module>_<version> (depends on python-2.1)
python-<module>_<version> (depends on python and python-2.1-<module>)
<python program>_<version> (depends on python and python-<module>,
#!/usr/bin/python)
<python program>-2.1_<version> (depends on python-2.1 and
python-2.1-<module>, #!/usr/bin/python2.1)
Until we get packages with broken dependencies fixed we could have:
python_1.5.2 (depends on python-1.5)
Note that this scheme would not alternatives to manage /usr/bin/python.
That link is controlled by the python package. This scheme is quite a
bit more complicated than what I proposed in the 0.2 policy draft. Oh
well.
I'm on vacation until Oct. 17 but I should have experimental packages
ready soon after that, they are almost done already. I don't know
what's happening with Woody. Can anyone explain it to me? Gregor seems
to be busy with other things right now.
