Package: python2.4-minimal
Version: 2.4.4-3
Python 2.4 minimal is horribly borked in Testing. At the bottom of the
message is a transcript of attempts to both install and uninstall,
neither of which work. I'm stuck, because I can't uninstall the old
package and fall back to the version that worked. I can patch any
necessary files, but I don't know enough Python to fix this alone. Help!
Install attempt:
jeeves:/var/cache/apt/archives# dpkg --install
python2.4-minimal_2.4.4-3_i386.deb
