It doesn't sound like there is one right answer for this. AKH mentioned (in the other thread) that it would be good to provide a placeholder package for -py23 and -py24 if you're going to drop them. However, if the upstream authors haven't said anything about not supporting python <= 2.4, then it's probably simplest to just leave them in there. I'll commit it as-is, but if you hear differently about support for older Python versions, let me know and we'll add some transitional placeholder packages that depend on the -py26 version. -- - Charles Lepple ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Fink-devel mailing list [email protected] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.os.apple.fink.devel Subscription management: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-devel
