packaging problems with the packages to debian-python. When preparing packages for multiple versions of python, please drop python1.5 support and consider providing support for the experimental python2.3 packages. Any reason to keep 2.1 ? Cheers, -- Jérôme Marant

Python and Emacs

share programs with others, it is better to have real TABs instead of spaces. I know about the C-q TAB but I don't want to use it every time I want automatic indentation. Does anyone know how to achieve this? Thanks in advance. -- Jérôme Marant http://marant.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE

Removing 4suite from Woody [Re: Please test new 4suite]

if noone objects. I cannot change the current python-xml since it would break boot-floppies. 4suite will however stay in unstable and the final 4suite 0.12 will fix the current problems. Cheers, -- Jérôme Marant [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://marant.org

Re: Please test new 4suite

not in Debian. with this argument you may not upload _any_ new version of a package which changes the ABI. Do you really want to make versioned 4suite packages? Considering that woody is due to be released soon, I don't think we should change anything right now. -- Jérôme Marant [EMAIL

Re: Please test new 4suite

if you do, damned if you don't. 0.12 uses a new API so anything using 4suite in woody will break most likely. I say stick with 0.11 and put 0.12 in unstable. I agree. But I think I'd better upload a stable 0.12 since woody release is coming soon. -- Jérôme Marant [EMAIL PROTECTED
