Hi all, because there was some rumor on #crux and I got some private email's as well, I would like to clarify some points regarding Python 2.5. Python 2.5 is a major release not compatible with 2.4.x. Updating to it means at least, that all dependent ports have to rebuild, which is IMO not acceptable without a release change of CRUX. Therefore this update will not come before CRUX 2.3. For those who need, for whatever reason, Python 2.5 short-term I've prepared a port [1] in my private repository. For now the port depends on sqlite3 [2], because the wrapper is part of the python sources. Though, I tend to remove this dependency for the final, official opt port. kind regards Jürgen [1] httpup sync http://jue.li/crux/ports/#python python [2] httpup sync http://jue.li/crux/ports/#sqlite3 sqlite3 -- Juergen Daubert | mailto:jue@jue.li Korb, Germany | http://jue.li/crux

Speaking of "sqlite3", I think it's in wide enough use to justify it to become sqlite, and make the current sqlite "sqlite2" - like glib and gtk. Currently it's not even in opt, and it's also one of the most duplicated ports across the personal repos.
