Zope 2.12 now requires Python 2.6
Hi, while I was trying to play with the upcoming Plone 4.0, which is technically vastly different from earlier releases, I found out that recent versions, or at least trunk, of Zope 2.12, appears to absolutely require Python 2.6. Or at least that's the way Andreas Jung, the Zope2 release manager, put it. I thought that this information should be less hidden than it is right now... -- Kind regards, --Toni++ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-python-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

backporting Python 2.6
Hi, while trying to backport Python 2.6 to Lenny, I discovered that it conflicts with python-xml, which is required by several other packages in conjunction with earlier versions of Python. I don't understand why this module has to conflict, though, but rather see this conflict as an artifact of our ways to express dependencies in Debian packages. If one could arrange for this pacakge to not install into pyshared, things could be fine, right? TIA! -- Kind regards, --Toni++ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-python-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
