"I see no need to promote developer dependencies separately, as any app relying on them will have to go through -devel anyway." So it s mean that people who want doing some python script on their maemo device need to activate before extras-devel repository ? I'm not sure this is the best idea ... I think it should be promoted to extras... But currently the people testing complain about promoting things into extras which are not gui things .... And adding repository mean asking to user which want to use this yet unused binding to add an other repository ? we will be back to the repository mess we know some years ago.
