--- Begin Message ---Hi Luigi (and Hi Doko), Here is something that Doko, one of the core Debian / Ubuntu guys for gcc and python and lotsofotherstuff dug out. As you are familiar with both QL and Swig, could you comment on how you view the issue? I can always patch this for Debian-only in the very short term but this may be something to consider for the next pre-1.0.0 release of Quantlib.
