We planned to package python-xpcom at some point in Maverick, but
everyone has been busy with more important work so far this cycle (ie,
updating Firefox to 3.6.x in every release, which has taken up a lot of
time from the people who would probably be otherwise working on this).
It will get done

Hi,

So, would it be acceptable if pyjamas was shipped in Lucid but without
pyjamas-desktop? This seems like the easiest solution to implement. For
Maverick, we can either continue to do that, have it use WebKit, or get
python-xpcom supported, but the latter two are outside my realm of
expertise.

@lfaraone: wronggg. if you actually bothered to look at the multi-level
dependencies in the pyjamas source package, you would note that there
are about eight or nine packages ONLY ONE OF WHICH is dependent on
python-hulahop, and that is pyjamas-desktop. pyjamas-desktop IS NOT A
CORE DEPENDENCY.

No, we can't do that. We only support xulrunner 1.9.2 in

As someone with an interest in Pyjamas which is potentially affected by
the above removals, can someone explain to me in simple terms why it was
actually neccesary to remove anything in the first place? From how I
read the description some things were split into seperate packages
(which is fine),
@Prins: From what I can tell,Pyjamas depended on python-hulahop, which
uses python-xpcom, which is not shipped in Lucid due to lack of time to
maintain it at the moment.

if anything the dependency was optional. the dependency on python-
hulahop was only for 1 of about 9 subprojects with pyjamas. it can
also be used (less successfully) with webkit...
please include it for Lucid+1. pyjamas's only hard dependency is
python.
