Considering that the package would then depend on python 2.1, I can simply apply the following patch: 1c1 < #!/usr/bin/python1.5 --- > #!/usr/bin/python 60c60 < import sys, os, getopt, cmp, string, re, urllib, commands --- > import sys, os, getopt, filecmp, string, re, urllib, commands 258c258 < if cmp.cmp(file, tempfile): --- > if filecmp.cmp(file, tempfile): Right? This works for me. No real need to write the script so it work on either 1.5 or 2.1 if the package depends on 2.1. I haven't missed something obvious, have I? So for the trivial questions. Please CC me in replies. Although I will look at the mailing list archives for replies, I am not subscribed to the list. Peter

But why should it run with any python version? The package is mostly tested with Debian's default python version, which is (and will be) 2.1 for woody. apt-listchanges is a special case, because it alway runs as root and does not rely on third party python packages which are not avilable for some python version. Assume, that you run apt-listchanges with 1.5, then the .py file get recompiled for python-1.5 (if you do NOT run as root) every time, assuming they were compiled with 2.x before. There is currently no way to switch off python's side effect of trying to write compiled files. For apt-listchanges this doesn't look very harmful, but consider the current packaging of the mailman package (where I disagree with the mailman maintainer ;-): - mailman does not depend on a particular python version (because it runs with versions from 1.5 and up). - assume, you install mailman, having python-1.5 as your default interpreter. The python files get compiled for 1.5. - you install python-2.1. - mailman is a cgi application, running with www-data.www-data, so now every time you call the cgi, thousends of lines are recompiled, but not saved. - so instead of choosing one python version, the mailman maintainer gives the user the "freedom" to choose one python version, and charges him with excessive runtime. - In an ideal world, we would have a recompilation of python files for every application an an own python interpreter (alternative) for each application. But we currently don't have ... In the case of apt-listchanges you should take care of removing any compiled *.py files in the postrm. Hope this helps ... Matthias
