I have already expressed my disagreement with some of the design choices in dh_python2, but it does a decent job, and obviously it is much better to have only one decent tool instead of two. Overall, as you might have noticed, I have vastly reduced my involvement in the Debian Python community. The reason is that all the crap that happened in Debian is still a result of broken designs in Python itself. I think there is a strong case for not using Python at all for anything non-trivial (i.e. more than scripting and small applications). -- .''`.
