Package: gns3 Version: 0.7.2-1 Severity: normal Tags: patch gns3 hard-codes a dependency on Python 2.6, rather than building with the build-time default Python version. pyversions should state the python versions supported by the codebase (in this case 2.5-, according to README).
I assume this is a result of http://bugs.debian.org/573583, but it seems like an over-the-top response. In Ubuntu, we've re-hard-coded gns3 to support 2.7 only, but I recommend the following patch: diff -u gns3-0.7.2/debian/control gns3-0.7.2/debian/control --- gns3-0.7.2/debian/control +++ gns3-0.7.2/debian/control @@ -4,7 +4,7 @@ Maintainer: Erik Wenzel <e...@debian.org> Homepage: http://www.gns3.net/ Vcs-Browser: http://gpl.code.de/gitweb?p=gns3.git;a=summary -Build-Depends: python2.6, python-support, cdbs (>= 0.4.43), debhelper (>= 5.0.37.2), python-qt4-dev (>=4.3) +Build-Depends: python, python-support, cdbs (>= 0.4.43), debhelper (>= 5.0.37.2), python-qt4-dev (>=4.3) Standards-Version: 3.9.0 Package: gns3 diff -u gns3-0.7.2/debian/pyversions gns3-0.7.2/debian/pyversions --- gns3-0.7.2/debian/pyversions +++ gns3-0.7.2/debian/pyversions @@ -1 +1 @@ -2.6 +2.5- Thanks, SR -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_ZA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_ZA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
