Just to confirm, does the latest stable pygame release (1.9.1) actually support python3? Because back when I initially prepared python3 pygame 1.9.1 packages for Debian a few years back, I recall that I was able to build it, but just importing pygame with a python3 interpreter resulted in an error. 1.9.2pre works great though. Is there a rough estimate of when 1.9.2 is expected to be released, by the way, or is it more along the lines of "it'll be done when it's done"? ;) Regards, Vincent -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-python-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
