Hello,

python-guppy is recommended by python-scrapy because one of it files tries to 
import it [1]:
/
| try:
|     import guppy
|     hpy = guppy.hpy()
| except ImportError:
|     hpy = None
\

As for the not up-to-date package in Debian/Ubuntu, it is due to the
Debian Freeze. I have uploaded the 0.9 version of python-scrapy to
experimental, as it does not fit to be in squeeze (due to the freeze). I
will work on packaging the latest version and upload it on experimental
(Debian). Then, a synchronization request can be sent on launchpad
asking the Ubuntu Teams to review, and upload the package onto Ubuntu
repositories.

If you need any help on this part, I would be glad to give you a hand.

Cheers,
 Ignace M
