And there's even a bug open on this regard: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=572776 I'm CCing the mail there, hope it's ok. The problem is, I haven't found a nice&clean solution to this. Sure I might detect which python versions are installed upon installation, and create appropriate symlinks. But what if you later install another Python version? You'd need to re-run bpython's postinst, and that's not nice, nor easily doable, apart from "apt-get --reinstall install bpython". I'll work on this, and once a good solution is found, I'll make a new upload ;) Thanks for the ping! David -- . ''`.
