Bug#645970: python-apt: please remove Recommends on python2.6
Package: python-apt
Version: 0.8.4
Followup-For: Bug #645970
Wheezy will ship with Python 2.7 as standard and yet python-apt still Recommends python2.6, which needlessly pulls the python2.6 package in. Could this please be removed before the freeze? Thanks!
