Then this is one more reason not to install python stuff into a versioned directory. I thought the whole point of using .../python-$major.$minor is to avoid problems with incompatible bytecode files.

This is one step - but what about the databases themselves? Currently MySQL provides mysql, PostGreSQL provides postgresql - what should a package recommend, which runs with both databases? As these two are the most supported databases in the open source world, we should perhaps also think about a virtual provides for this two at least. Whats the minimal SQL standard both support? Perhaps we can add a virtual provides like "Provides: SQL2" or "Provides: SQL-92" - so an application with a generic SQL interface just have to require a SQL-92 compatible database...
