Because for stable the "packages are either outdated or do not exist" situation is somewhat expected and testing is not that interesting case, though even in testing we may have a lot of outdated packages. > At my job, we were always able to stay with Debian packages, or > I just packaged the missing pieces, but maybe our use case is > not that advanced. Surely you use only a subset of modules while other people may need a different subset, and ability to make and upload new or updated packages, unavailable for most Debian Python users, is definitely helpful. --=20 WBR, wRAR --K4Rl8DFQShzMkdiT Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJhBAABCgBLFiEEolIP6gqGcKZh3YxVM2L3AxpJkuEFAmAsNWMtFIAAAAAAFQAP cGthLWFkZHJlc3NAZ251cGcub3Jnd3JhckBkZWJpYW4ub3JnAAoJEDNi9wMaSZLh 7ecP/R3B+psj3U95c+gmC5HVsCPe8h9mHBx/JJYeROl0YjnAlnYus57IsHsJHyZC mTaUwDH5+VrwPkKF3/6KCfgQAdnp+5AlW3i+S2lvL+JgjRdfkVrLfCZMucGnqumI Rh3RHgTrNutJBgRi1HbF25VmVIX2z40Mkq3UtSxaWhmGRwk4CAhViwrGIGqzEWpz U1VBl3nu0eS/MfPAhZKfI82X3KIVxodtGuQsHTUKQIHp827vu+UADuD3tN7B35+w MJ+St8jqEZ/dBDsoCA9EcO4YJuRFHy2OwAIe3wEpei6DmI+VPmijkpz4YoBBOOIs c6/nQBLqS3VIkX/UsMjUI0m7RffWCHBAMOtT7j+tdbI/avh1HG5/68WvX3w/A/rr TpAUj+uGiNum82k8RKNeUueXdh2g1imdkGuVtZxwXGPeUDgPuvQIBap4knpuykeA +ne/7Bd7q71e4hDqmFdDKKfk2kk0ERzjWyAdasl5jnIOps51O8u4aDF+W7y6Zl4n LnDo4gIf9GVv9avt0n5MwoVMQhIhTVfHmQ6akwgA3unR9y3byxSFMF9/f+9iSEu9 JaaNdNNNkrH/Emg19iOZidVUtGCV7N6ZSSSh89iDUul0w7Xbt/LjsYCArpv+Hz9S IWaOvOEONk4pathdsKv61ITx4TNJo2Jw+jKfzYobVl98D1Cz =kozo -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --K4Rl8DFQShzMkdiT--
