I backported ironpython (2.6 Beta 2 DEBUG (2.6.0.20)) for karmic and lucid and tested it on both ubuntu 9.10 and daily build of future 10.04. I noticed two "bugs" (inconveniences might be a better word):
1. The command "import sys; print(sys.path)" doesn't contain python-2.6 directories by default. The older ironpython (1.1.1) does. Is this deliberate? 2. In the interactive shell, ctrl-z doesn't close the app anymore, I have to use "killall -9 ipy" as well. However, "import sys; sys.exit()" works!
