Bug#562407: graphviz: Depends on python2.4 packages



Source: graphviz
Version: 2.20.2-6
Severity: important
User: debian-python@lists.debian.org
Usertags: python2.4-removal

Squeze will release with Python 2.5 and Python 2.6, while Python 2.4
is scheduled for removal when no packages will depend on it. Recent
python-defaults disabled support for Python 2.4 already, so it is no
longer supported version for module and extension building.

This package build-depends or depends on one or more packages built
on top of the python2.4 source package, and will be uninstallable
when they will be removed from Sid and Squeeze.

You should consider dropping build-dependencies and dependencies on
those packages, checking if code is compatible with newer releases of
Python. These links explain changes introduced and should ease your
work:
