Hi folks,
I'd like some advice as a beginner packager... I've written an. info
for http://pybsddb.sf.net/ (quite easy, as it uses distutils).
Now, the issue is that this package works with any combination of:
- Berkeley DB 4.0, 4.1, 4.2
- Python 2.2 and 2.3
What is the usual policy in that

I noticed that scipy-py23 fails to compile with g77 3.4-20031015-2
(from 10.3 stable branch) but compiles well with g77 3.4.0-2 (from
10.3 unstable branch). Jeff, you may add a BuildDepends line in your
package to correct this.

Unless your package takes the steps outlined in the license to avoid the
use of the GPL'd code in the library, the entire package should be marked
as GPL (since the GPL will apply to any other package linking to the
library).
Ah, that's true.
I would just depend on db 4.2, since earlier version (4.0, 4.1) had
serious problems on Mac OS X (especially on multiprocessor
machines).
thanks for the tip. no known issues with 4.2 I hope ? (I've bad
memories of picking a dependency that was just painful to support
afterwards)
