argparse was included in python2.7
Please change the argparse dependency to
python (>= 2.7) | python-argparse
The same change also makes sense for the build dependencies.
This will not install python-argparse needed for the 2.6 variants. The
only really satisfying option is adding explicit ipython2.6 packages
which I'm not going to do that as 2.6 will disappear at some point and
packaging is complex enough as is.
How about using "python (>= 2.7) | python-argparse" in Depends and
"python-argparse" in Recommends or Suggests?
The current Depends doesn't guarantee that ipython is usable with
non-default Python version anyway (e.g. you don't depend on
python2.6, you have little control over versions supported by your
dependencies, etc.).
It is my opinion that argparse should revert the 2.6 only change
That said, I agree that the argparse 2.6-only change should be reverted.
