python2.5 (2.5.1-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * Python-2.5.1 release.
  * Build-depend on gcc-4.1 (>= 4.1.2-4) on alpha, powerpc, s390, sparc.
  * Merge from Ubuntu:
    - Add debian/patches/subprocess-eintr-safety.dpatch (LP: #87292):
      - Create and use wrappers around read(), write(), and os.waitpid() in the
        subprocess module which retry the operation on an EINTR (which happens
        if e. g. an alarm was raised while the system call was in progress).
        It is incredibly hard and inconvenient to sensibly handle this in
        applications, so let's fix this at the right level.
      - Patch based on original proposal of Peter <C3><85>strand
        in http://python.org/sf/1068268.
      - Add two test cases.
    - Change the interpreter to build and install python extensions
      built with the python-dbg interpreter with a different name into
      the same path (by appending `_d' to the extension name). The debug build
      of the interpreter tries to first load a foo_d.so or foomodule_d.so
      extension, then tries again with the normal name.
    - When trying to import the profile and pstats modules, don't
      exit, add a hint to the exception pointing to the python-profiler
      package, don't exit.
    - Keep the module version in the .egg-info name, only remove the
      python version.
    - python2.5-dbg: Install Misc/SpecialBuilds.txt, document the
      debug changes in README.debug.
  * Update to 20070425, taken from the 2.5 release branch.

    required by builds for pure python modules without having python2.5-dev
    installed (matching the functionality in python2.4).
  * Move the unicodedata module into python2.5-minimal; allows byte compilation
    of UTF8 encoded files.
  * Do not install anymore outdated debhelper sample scripts.

python2.5 (2.5-3.1) unstable; urgency=low

    And being listed there is required for python-central to accept the

python2.1 (2.1.1-1.1) unstable; urgency=low

  * README FOR PACKAGE MAINTAINERS: It is planned to remove the python2-XXX
    packages from unstable and move on to python2.1.
    If you repackage/adapt your modules for python2.1, don't build
    python2-XXX and python2.1-XXX packages from the same source package,
    so that the python2-XXX package can be removed without influencing the
    python2.1-XXX package.

    See the debian-python mailing list at http://lists.debian.org/devel.html
    for details and the current discussion and a draft for a debian-python
    policy (August to October 2001).

  * Remove alternative for /usr/bin/python. The python-base package now
    provides the default python version.

  * Regenerate control file to fix build dependencies (closes: #116190).
  * Remove alternative for /usr/bin/{python,pydoc}.
  * Provide a libpython2.1.so symlink in /usr/lib/python2.1/config,
    so that the shared library is found when -L/usr/lib/python2.1/config
    is specified.
  * Conflict with old package versions, where /usr/bin/python is a real
    program (closes: #115943).
  * python2.1-elisp conflicts with python-elisp (closes: #115895).
  * We now have 2.1 (closes: #96851, #107849, #110243).

python2 (2.0-7) unstable; urgency=low
