Some comments: - python-central should have a configuration option, how files are compiled. Most users don't need compilation with -O. Maybe a debconf option?
- A separate command to install a python version would be useful. Assume I rename the packages again, or you want it to use for jython as well. - A package should have the possibility that it's incompatibe with a specific python version or that it only works with specific versions. - A command is missing to recompile all registered packages when the default python version changes. - How do packages like mailman make profit from python-central? They don't install into /usr/lib/python/site-packages, but their python files need to be recompiled on a python version change. Hope you can implement this missing bits for 0.x ;-) Matthias
