So the answer to my question ("What is Mageia going to do about this
mismatch?") is: "Nothing"?
"ask you to see with Oracle as they do not wish us to modify their
software"
It is proprietary software, the copyright holder explicitly tell "we are
the only one who can modify and fix it, others cannot", so that's rather
clear to me that they are the ones to contact.
A question for the expert :
Is it possible to make symbolic links that will compensate for the different versions of python
(2.7 and 2.6), like seems to be done on Mandriva with minor version differences of perl ?
Or some adaptation of requires/provides in the spec files ?
