Re: numpy 1.2.1, switching to git?

We talked with Sandro on IRC, the problem is in a bad internet connection --- it takes ~40min to download 10MB -- then of course every MB matters. For me it takes just couple seconds, so it doesn't really matter if I am downloading tarball+debian dir separately, or together in a git repo. I just assumed that everyone has a decent internet connection these days, and I was wrong. :) Ondrej

Last reply on this thread, just to recap what Ondrej and me discussed
on irc this evening.
I didn't realize I ain't made clear what's my network situation: I'm
still at 56k, so many of the think you broadband users consider
normal, trivial, or chip, for me they're not. I have to minimize the
stuff I download at home and maximize the effort, and svn
(+downloading the tarball at work, if they are big) allows me to
achieve this balance.
But even if I had an adsl or so, I would say that that git is not the
right choice for our team (but I would have made a lot less problems
migrating to it). I think that, being things are they are now, svn is
the right choice and keep being. What we really need is to migrate a
svn layout-2 repository (one composed by
{trunk,tags,branches,...}/package).
Anyhow, to be short: I count as 1, and we are in democracy; whatever
the team will come up, I'll stick to it eventually changing/reducing
the way I contribute to it.
Cheers and Happy Holidays,

Bug#509697: Python 2.5, ctypes, and binutils
Regarding #509697 (python 2.5 providing ctypes, and ctypes using objdump), I don't think it's reasonable to make python2.5 depend on binutils, just for the purpose of one of the modules in the standard library. One option would be to add binutils to Recommends or Suggest, but that does not ensure packages that Depend: python-ctypes will work. Maybe python should stop Providing: python-ctypes, and python-ctypes should depend on python (= 2.5) | python2.4 instead of just python2.4 (plus the recently added a dependency on binutils). This way binutils will get pulled only when a package that depends on python-ctypes is installed. (This does not solve, however, packages that are being smart and are depending on python (= 2.5) | python-ctypes. But maybe those packages should stop doing that.) If this is the way to go, then for squeeze it means that, if the ctypes source package is to disappear, it should be created as a dummy package (from python-defaults instead?), if only to contain the binutils depends/recommends.
