[Piotr Ożarowski, 2009-02-18] > [...] it's time however to decide which one will be my > winner - I'll decide that in next weeks (maybe months, but it > will happen sooner than later Since nobody is interested in having the tools binary compatible[1] (and, to be honest, I cared about opinion of two guys only: Matthias voted "no" by not agreeing to use /usr/lib/pyshared and Joss expressed his disapproval on #debian-python) - I choose python-support to be my preferred tool (no, not the "winner", I only wanted to provoke you both to make a consensus and thus not let me decide about anything). I'm not saying one of them is better than the other (although I was more a pycentral guy, Ana knows something about it[2]) - I'm saying I have more influence on how the tool looks like (f.e. via reporting bugs) and changes are more predictable in pysupport. You can now prove me how wrong decision I made but... I don't care ;-P I propose to file bugs against python-support instead (Joss will talk you to death if it's not really a bug ;-) Anyway, as promised: I will convert all my python-central based packages to python-support soon, will *not* sponsor python-central based package anymore (except packages for Lenny) - my FAQ is already updated, and will try to convince other DDs to do the same. PS while converting, remember to add to preinst something like these 3 lines: | if [ "$1" = upgrade ] && dpkg --compare-versions "$2" lt 1.2.3-4; then | pycentral pkgremove python-foo | fi [1] http://lists.debian.org/debian-python/2009/02/msg00099.html [2] ups, I did it again, sorry Ana -- -=[ Piotr Ożarowski ]=- -=[ http://www.ozarowski.pl ]=-
