[Jakub Wilk, 2011-01-13]What about backportability? Do you plan to backport dh_python2 to lenny? (I doesn't sound straight-forward, if doable at all.)didjvu will never be backported to Lenny as it will not be released with Squeeze
Well, there is lenny-backports-sloppy. But I was thinking more about backporting for user's own purposes.
For python-support-based packages, backporting is often no-op: you can just install a squeeze package on a lenny system (after you install python-support for bpo, of course).
but yes, with one small change (to workaround missing py_comple.pychanges in Lenny's Python inter), it is possible to backport it to Lenny.
dh_python2 currently generates a dependency on something like "python (>= 2.6.5-42~)". How is that supposed to work in lenny?
