mpich2 has a dependency on python2.5 and is therefor uninstallable on my system with python2.6. The problem can easily be fixed by rebuilding the package in a current unstable environment.
True, but it would be better to get rid of pythonX.Y dependencies at all, so that the bug won't trigger again by the next transition. The attached patch should do the trick.
