I may have missed something on why you can't package it right now, but
current build tools will use python2.4 instead of python to run
setup.py if you declare such a dependency in debian/pyversions, as well
as sed through the runnable files sed'ing the hashbang header, IIRC.
Take a look at some other application which requires python2.4, such as
turbogears and gazpacho, maybe?
That said, I would also like to see python-defaults upgraded to
python2.4, and can't see a reason for much more delay.
See you,
