One more thing for "Python Policy 2010." Status quo with examples.
Trac comes with jQuery suitable for this version of application. But Debian policy dictates to remove duplicated code, so jQuery is replaced with some other version rather than required. This creates problems with plugins and Debian email based tracker really suxx at reporting problems with plugins from trac-hacks that were not ported as packages (email based trackers suxx as a class). 80kb of duplicated code (even 8Mb) doesn't worth wasted time for troubleshooting in 2010. It may be a reason for security, but why not just let packages register their used version in Debian registry and track it there? BTW, on Windows I have tree 2.x Python versions installed and all three are used even though only one is default. But there is no Python2.6 even in backports on Lenny and I need it for python-expect, to automate my stuff. This also requires explanation to refer people when they ask. -- anatoly t. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-python-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
