Debian Python packages in sid
Matthias Klose reports that Python 2.4 will
soon be the default python version in sid. "With the upcoming
releases of the last packages which didn't support 2.4 yet (Plone on the
Zope application server) we may be able to drop support for 2.3 in sid and
etch as well."
Raphael Hertzog has more on the new Python policy. "As we want to do the python 2.4 transition now, we need to make sure the packages match the policy. This will limit the amount of broken packages when python2.4 will become the default and will smooth this transition." (Log in to post comments)

With these packages, the next transition to Python 2.5 will be easy compared to the previous ones!
