An experimental package that provides utility scripts to allow pure-python
packages to support more than one version of python. The provided scripts
are to be called in package post(inst|rem) scripts and create symlinks
and compile python source modules for all the supported and installed
versions of python.
This provides the needed functions to support the "not yet supported" bits
of the current Debian Python Policy.
