python-support (1.0.2) unstable; urgency=low
* dh_pysupport: remove warning about compatibility mode.
* movemodules: list files in /usr/share/pyshared, so that this place
can be used as a destination for stuff installed by hand.
* Switch to debhelper compatibility mode 7.
python-support (1.0.1) unstable; urgency=low
* update-python-modules:
+ Use the warning() function for all warnings. Closes: #522856.
* movemodules:
+ Read links destinations instead of their contents, so that we can
support dangling symbolic links. Closes: #523033.
python-support (1.0.0) unstable; urgency=low
* Upload to unstable.
python-support (0.90.5) experimental; urgency=low
* movemodules:
+ Better handling of files from multiple sources, used for files
being installed in different directories for python2.5 and 2.6.
+ Add /usr/local/lib/pythonX.Y/dist-packages as a source for
modules.
+ Use hashlib instead of md5. Closes: #519189.
* Require python 2.5 for the hashlib module.
python-support (0.90.4) experimental; urgency=low
* movemodules:
+ When moving relative symbolic links, handle the case where we move
several of them.
+ Support dist-packages as a source for modules.
* rules: install the .pth in dist-packages for python2.6.
Closes: #518826.
* update-python-modules: fix a crash occurring when a package drops
some supported versions. Closes: #518973.
python-support (0.90.3) experimental; urgency=low
* Add a quick guide for maintainers on top of the README. Maybe it
will prevent maintainers from doing useless things they thought were
necessary by reading the rest.
* movemodules:
+ Now that we have the /var/lib/python-support symlink, also move
files from that directory at build time, this will avoid to change
a couple of packages.
+ Preserve relative symbolic links when moving them to a different
level
python-support (0.90.2) experimental; urgency=low
* dh_pysupport: match /\.py$/ instead of /.py$/.
* movemodules: completely remove empty __init__.py files, they are
added at installation time by update-python-modules.
* post{inst,rm}: add a symbolic link in /var/lib/python-support,
otherwise the upgrade will be a big failure for several packages.
python-support (0.90.1) experimental; urgency=low
* Update priority to match the override.
* update-python-modules: add a consistency check for the case when no
packages using python-support are installed.
* dh_pysupport: avoid duplicates when handling private modules.
* movemodules: correctly support the case where
/usr/lib/pyshared/pythonX.Y is used but more Python versions are
supported.
python-support (0.90.0) experimental; urgency=low
* Major changes to the installed packages format. The old format is
still supported at runtime, but will not be generated anymore.
* Private modules now ship foo.private files, containing the metadata
and file listing for the package.
* Public modules now ship foo.public files for metadata and listing,
and files go to /usr/{share,lib}/pyshared. Closes: #478178.
* The modules installation path was changed to /usr/lib/pymodules.
* The private directory has moved to
/usr/share/python-support/private. The specific scripts are now
installed in here.
* Important documentation updates.
* copyright: point to the correct LGPL location.
* Add support for python2.6.
