But jokes aside, you have to rely on arbitrary decision of third party which can do whatever is pleased to do so in new versions, if some problem arises you can't stick to version known to work, because the other guys have the library on command on you linux distro. I'm not theoretizing, both this is relatively fresh experience with packaging problems for 10 different versions of python and impossibility to keep support for svn 1.6 (forced bump to 1.7). Any bugs here would be dataloss, so we want to have it under our control as much as possible, not just external dep. Pavel
