didn't Jakub alone file dozens of bugs *after* Ubuntu released with 2.7?
It's still not that bad compared to previous transitions, though (at
least I didn't see¹ "-I /usr/include/python2.6/" hardcoded for all Python
versions this time) but 10 minutes ago I recommended to yet another
co-worker to switch to python2.6 (which fixed the problem, BTW) or to
Debian when he came to me with random segfaults after upgrading his
workstation.
[¹] I still point ScottK to funny "fixes" when I find them,
poor guy even tried to convince others to let Debian do the
transition during last UDS (I guess he's tired of my whining about
it all the time ;)
