I did some tests with pil-systempython, and it seems to me that it can be compiled with any python between 2.5 and 2.7 and then be used with any other one. This might not be that simple for other python modules. Anyway, I made variants that correspond to the system pythons available: 2.5 for 10.5, 2.5 and 2.6 for 10.6, and 2.5, 2.6, 2.7 for 10.7. But for the asymptote package, which is my main (and only) motivation for maintaining a pil-systempython package, I depend now on pil-systempython25 for all 3 distributions, so that I can use the same asymptote.info for all of them. My main point in favor of a systempython package in this context was that in this way asymptote does not need to depend or builddepend on *any* python package. -- Martin ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
