Package: python-xml Version: 0.8.4-10.1 Severity: normal
I've asked aptitude to update, only to find it wants to upgrade python to 2.6 (yay !) and two packages (python-ll-core and python-xml) conflict with that because they depend on python < 2.6 (i.e. the primary python package must be at a version less than 2.6) rather than depending on availability of a version of python earlier than 2.6. I have python2.5 installed anyway - and it's not going away just because 2.6 is becoming the default - so I can still use these packages, just not in the default python version. Presumably it should suffice to change the requirement to python < 2.6 | python2.5 | python2.4 | ... and these packages will be happy with the transition. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-trunk-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.ISO-8859-15, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.ISO-8859-15 (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages python-xml depends on: ii libc6 2.10.2-9 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii python 2.5.4-9 An interactive high-level object-o ii python-central 0.6.14+nmu2 register and build utility for Pyt python-xml recommends no packages.
