No, that's not the case. Python 2.6 is only available in 
experimental, not in unstable or testing.


Even when Python2-6 appears in unstable, it is most probably a problem 
still as long as not being the default, due to some Python modules only 
compiled for the default Python version (multi-version Python module 
support is optional and raise packaging complexity considerably except 
when using CDBS, which is discouraged for other reasons by some 
developers).


Kind regards,

Hey Sascha,

could it be that 2.5 is only the default and that it is fine for a 
package to depend on python 2.6?

The latter isn't quite true: It has rejected the specific patch for 
technical reasons (and proposed a different way to fix it). 
Unfortunately
a) quite some time (without it getting fixed upstream) has passed since 
and
b) I didn't get any response from upstream when asking about when it 
might get fixed.
So for all practical purposes (except someone coming up with a better 
patch) it's the same. :-/

[Sugar-devel] sugar master will depend on simplejson again

2009-11-19 Thread Daniel Drake
Hi,

We've found that sugar's recent switch to cjson has caused issues and
cjson upstream doesn't seem receptive to fixing them.
So the plan is to move back to simplejson on monday, like things were
before.

Daniel
