The 2.0 license may not be compatible with the GPL. Any GPLed Python
code will have to keep using 1.5, unless its author addresses this
incompatibility; Debian can't make that decision for them. I would
expect this to become less and less of a problem in practice as the
Python developer community transitions to 2.0, but at the present time
we can't just swap versions.
