I have hacked a dh_python script designed to ease our lives when packaging python stuff. It is merely based on dh_perl.
It creates a new substvar for debhelper, named python:Depends, and adds postinst/prerm scripts if appropriate. The substvar contains dependencies on python (>= X.Y), python (<< X.Z), and/or pythonX.Y when appropriate. It also makes the python-foo packages depend on pythonX.Y-foo if it exists (X.Y being the current python version). The postinst script compiles the modules where they were found, and the prerm script removes the .py[co] files. Please, give it a try. The current version is certainly buggy and may do some stuff incorrectly, but I think it would be nice to have such a thing in debhelper. It can be found at http://people.debian.org/~joss/dh_python/ Regards, -- .''`. Josselin Mouette /\./\ : :' : [EMAIL PROTECTED] `. `' [EMAIL PROTECTED] `- Debian GNU/Linux -- The power of freedom
