Aww, sorry, I didn't look close enough when filing the initial bug report. Londonlaw is architecture: all. This means that, if it works with python 2.4, it *will* work with python 2.5. Therefore you mustn't use "XS-Python-Version: 2.4" which will force the python version to 2.4 only. The only change you need is to set "XS-Python-Version: all" or "XS-Python-Version: >= 2.4" if 2.4 at least is required. This way you don't have to deal with the wxwidgets madness; when python 2.5 becomes the default, depending on python-wxwidgets2.6 is guaranteed to bring working packages for python 2.5. > > Well, I guess the python maintainer will still want the Debian version > > to lag behind the Ubuntu one. > > After having spoken to him in person at debconf this year, I can assure > you that this is not the case. I'm afraid I need more than talk to be convinced of that. Currently, actions contradict such talk. -- .''`.
