Updated idea for transition
What about doing as gcc? Produce python-1.5, python-2.1 and so on
forever. And then have a package python that just drags in the
official version, and links /usr/bin/python. If we nuke python-base,
all old modules get upgradrd I think. (Similar for python-foo etc.)
The only problem I see is that old version of python will be left
behind, but the situation is the same for all libs. debfoster works
fine here for me.
