Package: python-ctypes
Version: 1.0.2-4
Severity: serious

The python-ctypes package does not support python2.5. As it is named
python-ctypes, it should provide support for the default python version
(python policy §2.2).

Even worse, as it does not depend on python (<< 2.5) because of
bug#480838, it does not refuse to install. Therefore, it breaks all
packages depending on python-ctypes that expect the module to be
available for the default python version.

If support for python2.5 cannot be introduced, the package should be
renamed python2.4-ctypes.

Cheers,

Since the ctypes module is contained in python 2.5, this is not a
problem for this package.

(python should provide python-ctypes now and does not, but that’s
another issue.)
