Personally, I want one helper. The consistency will make life much easier for new packagers, for documentation, and for helping focus the community on fixing bugs, adding features, and improving the state of the art. Even though it will eventually all be made moot by the retirement of Python 2 <wink>, I think that dh_python2 provides the most benefit, and is the easiest to use. So I would personally like to see this community rally behind it as the One True Way. As my previous message stated, we're on a mission to remove python-support and python-central from the Ubuntu CDs. Officially deprecating python-support in Debian would make our lives easier. :) -Barry
