Playing with the popcon website [1] I can't see a clear correlation between ipython and python-argparse installations, so modifying Python's package to solve this (by providing python-argparse) might be a little overkill.
Until the python2.6 userbase drops [2] why don't you just lower python-argparse to a Recommendation instead of a Dependendency? This would still pull python2.6 by default but it would allow removal or no installation (using apt-get --no-install-recommends) for those who want to keep only python2.7 (myself included ;-) Regards, Carlos Izquierdo [1] http://qa.debian.org/popcon.php?package=python-ipython http://qa.debian.org/popcon.php?package=python-argparse [2] http://qa.debian.org/popcon.php?package=python2.6 http://qa.debian.org/popcon.php?package=python2.7 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
