Yes, that's exactly my purpose for depending on ‘python-pkg-resources’. What are you saying has changed? As far as I can tell there is still the need to have ‘pkg_resources’ available separately. The ‘dh-python’ suite is currently detecting dependencies from the Distutils information; the binary package has only “${python:Depends}” which is then populated automatically. Is this perhaps a bug in that detection? What should I describe to the ‘dh-python’ maintainer? -- \ “If you're a horse, and someone gets on you, and falls off, and | `\ then gets right back on you, I think you should buck him off | _o__) right away.” —Jack Handey | Ben Finney <bign...@debian.org>
