I was actually thinking of sed-ding a template with some variables from d/rules, but that's an implementation detail. But storing the info in the pydist would mean I'd need to parse it to extract the data I need to pass to dh_numpy template (if we're going to have one) or make dh_numpy read the pydist file at runtime (that could be nice too indeed) and it seems to be missing the abi$M information. -- Sandro Tosi (aka morph, morpheus, matrixhasu) My website: http://matrixhasu.altervista.org/ Me at Debian: http://wiki.debian.org/SandroTosi -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-python-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
