Python 2.4.1
I don't know whether this is the appropriate place to ask this question but could someone please let me know when Python 2.4 will be available in a Debian package? Poking around in synaptic, it seems that some packages dependent on Python are linked to older versions. Examples are: konqueror = python 2.1 distutils = python 1.5 Since a lot of effort is put into making Python backward compatible, shouldn't these accept more recent versions?

Python2.4 is available in testing and unstable. It's just not in the current stable. Poking around in synaptic, it seems that some packages dependent on Python are linked to older versions. Examples are: konqueror = python 2.1 I'm not sure where you are seeing this build dependency. Since it appears you are using stable, then looking at: http://packages.debian.org/stable/web/konqueror and I don't see any dependencies on python. distutils = python 1.5 This probably is still in stable to maintain backwards compatibility to older versions of python. On the description page for distutils, it says: Beginning with Python version 1.6 the distributions utilities are included in the upstream Python source and can be found in the pythonX.Y-dev packages. http://packages.debian.org/stable/interpreters/python1.5-distutils Kevin -- Kevin Coyner GnuPG key: 1024D/8CE11941 http://rustybear.com/pubkey.php -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
