In response to the mail by Faheem Mitha dated 27 January 2005 at 16:02: | Package: rpy | Severity: wishlist | Tags: patch | | | Hi Dirk, | | Consider adding support for python 2.4. Trivial patch against current
I was thinking about this, yes. | version follows. I have installed it and it at least loads into python2.4 | without complaint, but I have not done any testing. I don't currently use | rpy and am doing this for someone else. Neither do I, so how would either one of use take it for a testdrive? ;-) | We can take this version for a test run and report any problems we encounter | back here. | | Note that I have not versioned the python2.4-dev in Build-depends, but I am | not sure why it is necessary. Build daemons, which always start from a minimal base system, fail if required packages are not listed. Put the stress on BUILD and then on DEPENDS and it all becomes clear :) Kidding aside, maybe just python2.4 would do too, but I had too many bug reports on Builds-Depends over the years to have any interest in minimizing the respective sets.
