I'd prefer it to be in the archive for 2.6 _and_ 2.7 until all dependencies have disappeared (which won't happen before 2.6 removal) You can't let python2.7 provide it as packages having 2.7 and 2.6 executables will not run anymore for 2.6 as argparse will never get installed. Using python (>= 2.7) | python-argparse Depends has the same problem. Given that we have to maintain argparse until 2.6 removal in any case I think the least work solution is to just keep argparse for 2.7 too.
