I have now rebuilt all reverse dependencies against the new
python-support version. 

This process allowed me to find a couple of things to improve so that
less packages are affected, and some long-standing bugs that maintainers
were working around.

Even with these changes, there are around 50 packages that need fixing.
I have filed bugs against them, and the progress can be followed there:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?tag=pysupport-transition;users=joss@debian.org

I also found a number of FTBFS issues and some bugs related to Python
packaging but not to these changes; they don’t appear in this list.

Cheers,
