       private directory

python-defaults (2.7.2-5) experimental; urgency=low

   [ Piotr Ożarowski ]
   * dh_python2:
     - generates rtupdate scripts for private directories that compile files
       from given package only, add --compile-all to dh_python2's call if you
       want the old behaviour (i.e. compile also files (plugins?) provided by
       other packages, which do not use a helper/bytecompile them)
     - add --no-dbg-cleaning option (to disable removing files from debug
       packages)
     - fix handling "distname[features]" in debpython.pydist.guess_dependency
       (closes: 636255)
   * pyclean now accepts --package and private dir argument at the same time

python-defaults (2.7.2-2) experimental; urgency=low

   [ Piotr Ożarowski ]
   * dh_python2:
     - no longer generates maintainer scripts that invoke pycentral's
       pkgremove script, use --clean-pycentral if you want the old behaviour
     - egg-info directories are parsed even if cleaning the name was necessary
       (thanks to Arnaud Fontaine for the patch)
     - private directory names with apostrophes are escaped properly in
       maintainer script's -X arguments (thanks to Jakub Wilk for the patch)
     - deal with original symlinks more carefully (closes: 627969, thanks to
       Leonid Borisenko for the original patch)
     - add --ignore-shebangs option that will disable translating shebangs into
       Debian dependencies
     - add --ignore-namespace option that will disable handling
       Egg-info's namespace_packages.txt (AKA namespace feature)
     - PyDist: update dist_fallback file (with atypical Debian package names)
     - disable PyDist feature if dh sequencer is invoked --with pydeb
       (closes: 630502, thanks to Gediminas Paulauskas for the original patch)
     - warn if public Python extension is linked to libpython2.X, fail if it's
       linked to a wrong version
     - warn if both XS-Python-Version and X-Python-Version are defined
     - private dirs: if there is more than one Python version parsed from
       shebangs, byte-compile the dir with default Python version (or the one
       requested via X-Python-Version) instead od failing. Add dependency for
       each (supported) interpreter detected in shebangs
     - /usr/share/pyshared is not added to the package if empty (closes: 623909)
     - dh_python2's manpage updated (among other changes, no longer advertises
       python:Breaks - closes: 631397, describes .pyinstall and .pyremove files)
     - remove setuptools from requires.txt (it is replaced with
       python-pkg-resources Debian dependency)
     - "--namespace foo" no longer triggers .../dist-packages/bar/foo/__init__.py
       creation, use "--namespace bar.foo" instead
 
   [ Scott Kitterman ]
   * Python policy:
     - Add deprecation information about python-central and python-support
     - Clarify Python module and package descriptions

python-defaults (2.6.6-14) unstable; urgency=low

   [ Piotr Ożarowski ]
   * python.mk: add py_builddir macro.
     $(call py_builddir, 2.6) returns "build/lib.linux-x86_64-2.6" on amd64
   * dh_python2, pycompile, pyclean: add "namespace" feature:
     dh_python2 parses Egg's namespace_packages.txt files (in addition to
     --namespace command line argument(s)) and drops empty __init__.py files
     from binary package. pycompile will regenerates them at install time and
     pyclean will remove them at uninstall time (if they're no longer used in
     installed packages
