Bug#669209: RFS: yp-svipc/0.13-1 [ITP] -- System V InterProcess Communication for Python/Yorick



(message originally sent to the ITP instead of the RFS)

Hi,

(I don't intend to sponsor this package.)
Thanks for the comments nevertheless. I've fixed them all.

In the meantime, upstream succeeded in porting this extension to python 3, so I've updated the package accordingly:
http://mentors.debian.net/package/yp-svipc
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/y/yp-svipc/yp-svipc_0.14-1.dsc
I'd rather not use ${python:Provides}. See:
http://lists.debian.org/20110324164804.GA5919@jwilk.net
I see there's a consensus in this direction and that's in line with [1], but that's contrary to the Python Policy as published in [2] which states " Provides in binary packages of the form python-foo must be specified, if the package contains an extension for more than one python version."
[1] http://wiki.debian.org/Python/Policy
[2] http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/python-policy/

I'm guessing [2] should be fixed and I'll file a bug report to that effect tomorrow*.

Regards, Thibaut.
