As an interesting contrast,both Gentoo and Ubuntu seem to package it as "pyyaml" :-) Eerm.. and debian does too? or at least.. it has a "source package" named "pyyaml".. but a "binary package" named "python-yaml" ?!!! http://packages.debian.org/source/lenny/pyyaml that's just insane. Stop the insanity please :-) pyyaml is a well-known exception to the usual py_ convention _______________________________________________ maintainers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.opencsw.org/mailman/listinfo/maintainers
