Changelog

python2.5 (2.5.1-1ubuntu1) gutsy; urgency=low

  * Merge with Debian; remaining changes:
    - Include the pregenerated documentation.
    - Set priority of python2.5-minimal to required.
    - Build using tetex.

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.

python2.5 (2.5.1-0ubuntu1) feisty-proposed; urgency=low

  * Python-2.5.1 release; changes compared to the release candidate:
    - SF #1701207: svnversion_init assertion failed; revert bogus asserts
      (added to the wrong place) from rev 52501.
    - Revert SF #1615701 (rev 53655): dict.update() does *not* call
      __getitem__() or keys() if subclassed.  This is to remain consistent
      with 2.5.
    - Revert 53667, bypass set specific optimizations for set and frozenset
      subclasses.  This is to remain consistent with 2.5.
    - Describe undocumented third argument to touchline()
  * Regenerate the documentation.
