I have updated the Python policy document based on the discussions on the list. An updated DebianDoc (and HTML and text files) can be found at http://people.debian.org/~piman/python-policy/. It: 0) Removes a lot of cruft/debate from the document itself 1) Explains X*-Python-Version 2) Explains that we don't want tight dependencies 3) Deprecates /usr/lib/site-python 4) Outlines using python-support/central with debhelper 5) Tries to cover more on private modules It does not: 1) Cover CDBS, since I don't know how to use it properly 2) Give examples for Python packages without using debhelper; I suspect those are now almost impossible to make sanely. Probably: 1) The "Upgrade Procedure" section needs work (from RMs) 2) I have some details wrong 3) My explanations could be clearer (but I feel it's an improvement over the old structure) -- Joe Wreschnig <piman@sacredchao.net>
