Considering that the package would then depend on python 2.1, I can simply apply the following patch: 1c1 < #!/usr/bin/python1.5 --- > #!/usr/bin/python 60c60 < import sys, os, getopt, cmp, string, re, urllib, commands --- > import sys, os, getopt, filecmp, string, re, urllib, commands 258c258 < if cmp.cmp(file, tempfile): --- > if filecmp.cmp(file, tempfile): Right? This works for me. No real need to write the script so it work on either 1.5 or 2.1 if the package depends on 2.1. I haven't missed something obvious, have I? So for the trivial questions. Please CC me in replies. Although I will look at the mailing list archives for replies, I am not subscribed to the list. Peter
