patches are welcome, if you are able to test that other versions and package sources work.

May I ask why pybombs recipies for

"make" does not allow for rpm (but only deb or src)

"swig" it insists only on the 2.0 version?

Achilleas,

Yes, Chris is correct. When people add new support for these things, we generally put in what's necessary for us at the time. Some people are more conscious of trying to make sure it works on all platforms, but in this case, given the source build fallback option, it's pretty easy to not bother. You also need to be able to test on any of the systems you are adding support for, so sometimes, it's much safer to leave the others be and focus on what you have and know.

This is very much a community effort!
