why not generate maintainer scripts without pycompile at all? I wanted to delegate as much as possible to interpreter packages, but your idea with temp. files is even better - maintainer scripts can look like this: | touch /usr/lib/pythonX.Y/dist-packages/namespace/__init__.py¹ | touch /usr/lib/pythonX.Z/dist-packages/namespace/__init__.py¹ | dpkg -L <package> | grep \.py$ | while read file | do | echo "${file}" >> /var/lib/python/pyX.Ycompile.todo | echo "${file}" >> /var/lib/python/pyX.Zcompile.todo | done [¹] namespace has to be created here as other packages might want to use given library in maintainer scipts, even without .pyc files ("test -f ... ||" is probably missing here) (with some extra code to handle private directories, including rt* scripts, or any other logic from pycompile script, probably without exclude patterns or other features that are not really used) > 2) Add code to pythonX.Y's postinst that'll process stuff from > /var/lib/python/pyX.Ycompile.todo.

I like it and will try to provide example scripts for interpreter packages (and then generate prerm like in postinst example) -- Piotr Ożarowski Debian GNU/Linux Developer www.ozarowski.pl www.griffith.cc www.debian.org GPG Fingerprint: 1D2F A898 58DA AF62 1786 2DF7 AEF6 F1A2 A745 7645 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-python-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
