I heard back from Neal, and he doesn't mind me including pychecker2 in the Debian package. So, I have made the changes and I will upload 0.8.17-5 later this evening.
I changed my mind and decided to add the new code to the existing Debian package, rather than making a special library package to hold only pychecker2. Just depend on pychecker and you should be able to 'import pychecker2' automatically from any version of python that works with the python-support infrastructure. I also applied the SPE patch to pychecker2/main.py, so the new Debian package should be fully-compatible with SPE. (The patch has been submitted to SourceForge, as request #1845213. Hopefully, we can get it committed to CVS at some point, but there are lots of other pending patches and it may be a while.) Note: I have not done any testing other than to check that the import succeeds, since I don't know what results are expected from this code. Please test and make sure that the new package works as expected. Feel free to re-open this bug report if something isn't working properly. Thanks, KEN -- Kenneth J.
