I should have an eric upload to do next week. I'll deal with this at
the same time.

Importance: Undecided => Medium

Status: New => In Progress
** Description changed:
Debian is working to remove python-xml before the lenny release. If would be
good if Ubuntu could manage the same for Hardy. Since some time a subset of
python-xml is included in the standard python library, while the python-xml
package did not see any updates for years. It is time to drop it from the
distribution.
Update scenarios:
- Just drop the (build) dependency, if the functionality is included
in python. (Build)-depend on python (>= 2.4).
- Copy missing code in the std library from the python-xml package.
(e.g. for some installer packages: localechoose).
- Use another xml library (python-4suite-xml, python-lxml).
This has been the subject of a recent mass bug filing in Debian, so in many
cases it's just a question of syncing an updated package from Debian. See
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?tag=python-xml-
removal;[EMAIL PROTECTED]
for the Debian bugs and their status.
