Jakub Wilk pointed me out that in my package pyke (maintained under the
DPMT umbrella) dh_python2, in the binary package, is generating:
Depends: python2.6 | python2.7, python (>= 2.6.6-7~), python (<< 2.8)
But "python (>= 2.6.6-7~), python (<< 2.8)" already implies either
python2.6 or python2.7, so the "python2.6 | python2.7" part is
redundant.
Now that python2.7 is the default version, this has now become not only
an aesthetical issue. For dependencies like that, apt will by default
install both python2.6 and python2.7 (even though the former is not
needed):
# apt-cache show python-pygments | grep ^Depends
Depends: python2.6 | python2.7, python (>= 2.6.6-7~), python (<< 2.8)
# apt-get install -qqs python-pygments
