Hi,

since version 0.7.1 (currently in experimental), python-support can
handle namespace packages, which are going to be required by some
packages using setuptools.

Such packages will need to get a dependency on python-support 0.7.1 for
this to work. However I don't want to add some code to detect whether
this dependency is actually needed because it would be a bit too complex
and unreliable. The result (make the dependency 0.7.1 for all packages)
is like a shlibs bump, which would have the downside to prevent packages
from migrating to testing until python-support does.

Would the release team be OK with such a dependency bump?
