Suggestion of dh_purepython
Hi Python folks,
I have put together a dh_purepython debhelper script to help
the installation of pure Python packages.
Still missing:
1) All Python X.Y versions need to be preinstalled. What happens
when you install an new Python version? Hmm, we have to
register those pure python packages somehow and byte-compile
them if we install a new pythonX.Y package.
2) in prerm, cope with empty directories being left in
/usr/lib/pythonX.Y/site-packages
3) sanity check for rm -rf in prerm
4) fix permissions of generated .py[co] files and directories, do not
rely on umask
5) see BUGS of dh_purepython, for the compileall.py patch see
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=501713&group_id=5470&atid=305470
All needed scripts as well as an example debian package can be
found at http://www.debian.org/~calvin/purepython/.
To install, copy dh_purepython into /usr/bin/ and copy
{postinst,prerm}-purepython to /usr/share/debhelper/autoscripts/.
ATTENTION: to install the example, you need to patch all your
/usr/lib/pythonX.Y/compileall.py files:
(patch is for 1.5.2, but easy adoptable)

math.exp bug on alpha?
Greetings, on alpha debian, python 2.1.1-8: >>> import math >>> math.exp(-720) aborts the interpreter with a floating point exception. The strange thing is, exp(-700) and exp(-750) both work. Any insight? Thanks in advance, Luigi

Pyvorbis and ogg comments
Does anyone know how to set comments in ogg files using the libvorbis bindings? I can set a comment non-permanently (the VorbisComment object works like a dictionary), but I can't work out how to actually *save* those comments that I've set... I asked Chris Cheney, the maintainer, and he didn't know; upstream seem to not be answering mails, so I'm a bit baffled.
