Package: python-minimal
Version: 2.6.5-6
Severity: important
Hi,
Since python 2.6.5-6, pyversions -r exits if the XS-Python-Version field is
missing in debian/control and debian/pyversions does not exist. The manpage
says that it should return the list of supported python versions like in
2.6.5-5.
This bug makes canto and archivemail FTBFS because debhelper relies on
pyversions.
Example:
(2.6.5-6)
$ pyversions -r
pyversions: missing XS-Python-Version in control file, fall back to
debian/pyversions
[Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'debian/pyversions'
(2.6.5-5)
$ pyversions -r
pyversions: missing XS-Python-Version in control file, fall back to
debian/pyversions
pyversions: missing debian/pyversions file, fall back to supported versions
python2.5 python2.6
The attached patch fixes this problem.
Best Regards,
Vincent
