This is correct (this was not part of the new policy when I updated the
package).

This is all incorrect (at least, it's not in 4.1-4, the URL for 4.1-5
sees to be missing, but I'll assume he just updated the changelog to
adopt the package). It correctly supports all Python versions, or did
previously. It's possible that someone broke python-support again, but I
think it will still work.

python-all-dev is left over from before the new tools handled
rebuilding. It can probably changed to python-dev. But that's a minor
bug at best.

python2.4-feedparser is not only correct but was necessary to deal with
#358900 at the time. However, there are no rdeps on it now, so it might
be worthwhile to remove it. But again, it's not a bug.
