All i can say is that with python2.4-dev i get plugin support,
and with python2.5-dev not.
This is however a debian which additional sucks the experimental package
archive,
but prefers the normal unstable ('Sid'). This can lead to Magnus 'beloved'
dependency hell
sometimes, since there's always a strong flux and insufficient dependencies may
be
fixed only minutes after i updated the packages lists...since updating the
lists and then
the packages is a daily task, i can't be sure to reproduce exactly the same
conditions only
hours later.
It turned out to be tricky to get python2.4 removed, this time, it actually
wasn't possible.
The dependence chain finally stuck at python-libcairo, but anyway, python2.4
*is* explicitly
mentioned (and linked) as the default version of debian unstable. This means a
standard installation
will install 2.4 and will never upgrade to 2.5 unless the meta-package
maintainer changes that.
Indeed you can have several python versions in parallel (2.3 and 2.4 are
standard, i think, though
there may be very few packages left calling 2.3 explicitly.) By now, there may
be some libs not
available as 2.5 yet. I think the whole issue will be obsolete once python2.5
will be fully operational.
Debug files attached to private mail.
