Subject: Python 2.1/2.2 removal; Python 2.4 as default
Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Hi all,

It's been quite a while, but 2.1 and to a slightly lesser extend, 2.2
are really obsolete now. One of the issues with 2.1 and 2.2 are that
they don't build on amd64, and are holding up a whole chain of packages
also.

Therefore, I'd like to remove python 2.1 and 2.2 as soon as possible,
like, before the weekend for example. As far as I can see, nothing
really important depends on it any more, and whatever it is, can be NMUd
or removed. Most if not all depending packages already have a bug filed
for at least 2 months, which should've been plenty of warning.
