I have been waiting for python2.6 as default version for ages and still it is not the default version... What I do is: - setup a separate pbuilder chroot, in my case /home/morph/deb/pbuilder/base_python2.6default.tgz - sudo pbuilder --login --save-after-login --basetgz /home/morph/deb/pbuilder/base_python2.6default.tgz - change /usr/share/python/debian_defaults and set python2.6 as default - change the symlinks /usr/bin/python* to point to 2.6 - exit from the pbuilder chroot and --build the package with that --basetgz. Thanks for the info Sandro. I really should have RTFM. I did something similar to that: I installed python2.6, changed /usr/bin/python symlink and edited /usr/share/python/debian_defaults. After fixing some buggy lines in debian/rules, I still can't build namebench because of some python-support error. I don't know if I should file a bug in python-support or keep waiting and waiting for proper python2.6 support. Anyway, below is the relevant part of my build log, maybe someone know how to override this problem with python-support: make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/miguel/src/namebench/ftbfs/namebench-1.1+dfsg' dh_installcatalogs dh_installcron dh_installdebconf dh_installemacsen dh_installifupdown dh_installinfo dh_pysupport dh_pysupport: The default python version is greater than all supported versions make: *** [binary] Error 9 dpkg-buildpackage: error: fakeroot debian/rules binary gave error exit status 2 PS: let's thank the python maintainers for not having provided an environment where to test such problems and for waiting more and more for the switch Totally, what is it still needed to make the switch? I am really willing to help to complete this switch.
