require a particular Python version.  I cannot guarantee that soya would
work with  all existing  Python versions but  it works with  the current
Python version  of stable and  all currently supported version  in Lenny
and  unstable, therefore I  think that  debian/pyversions is  not useful
(based on the fact that we drop too old dependency information).

Tell  me if  you agree.  We can  also seek  advice on  debian-python@ if
needed.

 and remove debian/pycompat. I note that you said you'd removed this in
 the latest upload to experimental but I still see this in the package.

You  are  right. It  seems  that  I did  not  compile  soya  in a  clean
environment   because   I  don't   see   debian/pycompat   in  the   SVN
repository. Therefore, it will be dropped with next upload.

Hi,

Sure, I think that's a fair viewpoint. I just added it for some value of
semantic correctness, based on the compatibility that upstream list on
their website. I don't think it particularly makes any technical difference.

btw, I just noticed that pycompat wasn't removed from my debdiff either.
Further investigation reveals that the cdbs python-distutils class
insists on creating it. I've deleted it in the clean:: target in the
rules file for now.

Iain

Hi,

I've just merged your package with our Ubuntu-local changes and thought
to forward the delta back to you for your consideration. We add a
debian/pyversions file to comply with the python policy at [0], and
remove debian/pycompat. I note that you said you'd removed this in the
latest upload to experimental but I still see this in the package.

In Ubuntu, we've applied the attached patch to achieve the following:

  * Merge from Debian experimental (LP: #295540), remaining changes:
- Add debian/pyversions file
  * Remove debian/pycompat 


Thanks,
Iain
