you'll have to wait until python2.5_2.5.1-1 is built and installed on all
architectures.

What I forgot to mention here: Only moving to python-support does not
work for Packages which need python-all-dev to build their .so files.
python-all-dev still does not depend on python2.5-dev, so you'd have to
add it manually to the build dependencies, same for python2.5. This will
lead into pain later, as the package is not binNMU-able when a new
python version comes out. What we really wanna have is python2.5 being
in the list of supported python versions.



Cheers,

Bernd

unfortunately even this doesn't work. if you build the package in a
clean environment without python2.5(-dev) installed, the c extensions
are not built for python2.5.

the only clean fix is to wait for python-all-dev to be updated or
build-depend on python2.5-dev.

this is not the way to update packages unfortunately. The real solution
would be to file a bug against python-minimal and ask for support of
python2.5 (which will result in pycentral installing the modules for
2.5, too) or the other way would be to use python-support for this
package, as python-support is able to handle other versions than the
default version just fine (except for a few rare cases).

Cheers,
