Seems so. If bsddb is actually unavailable in Python 3.0, you would need to download/install it from PYPI. I'm committed to keep bsddb alive, in a way or another :). I'm thinking that if bsddb is discarded in Python 3.0, shelve probably drop it also, so installing bsddb externally will not "magically" make it available to 3.0 shelve. I can't comment about the python-dev plans here. PS: Remember that if you are installing bsddb as a separate package, its name will be "bsddb3", not "bsddb". - -- Jesus Cea Avion _/_/ _/_/_/ _/_/_/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://www.jcea.es/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ jabber / xmpp:[EMAIL PROTECTED] _/_/ _/_/ _/_/_/_/_/ . _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ "Things are not so easy" _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ "My name is Dump, Core Dump" _/_/_/ _/_/_/ _/_/ _/_/ "El amor es poner tu felicidad en la felicidad de otro" - Leibniz -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.8 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iQCVAwUBSL/jJZlgi5GaxT1NAQIzJAP8CiIxpoz553NDr+/1GkAfzs3W6fu1uBuo XsCmbqkiOMe9fPOBNZnlfoBnGz4C4nlOlOzQV3RexRXBiWKOqUUg4DlJOJtrAMUO ZNtcz9JyvjzmVNZMezgCsfjkEhzNABbCe9mXHQVCR5zlNZVUKpTW7A06/1eX/gMv ECJqQta662o= =6XBZ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
