work needed on the python2.1 -> 2.2 transition
Good news first. It becomes more tedious to track the bug-free
packages. Besides the usual serious bugs, the following issues remain:
- wxwindows2.2 is still unbuildable in unstable, not yet removed
from unstable, package maintainer does not respond. Oh fun!
- postgresql: doesn't go to testing due to five serious reports,
but doesn't go to testing, because it needs python2.2. This
gets difficult ...
- out of date packages on some architectures. many on arm, some
on ia64, m68k, a few on mips, mipsel, sparc. See below.
- we have to wait for the glibc transition to testing, as new
binary packages are built. Don't know when this will be ...
Maybe all new python related uploads should be urgency medium to not
further delay the transition.
