I just built python-2.6.5-9.fc14 into rawhide. In theory, most users should see no change relative to -8.fc14 However, I've done some major surgery to the insides of the src.rpm and how the build works; we've gained a python-debug subpackage, containing an alternate python build that adds a ton of runtime checking (e.g. for tracking down reference counting bugs), sharing .py/.pyc files with the regular optimized build, but with a different ABI for the .so files More information here: http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/python-devel/2010-May/000250.html In theory, the regular python stack should be unaffected: I'm running with a local rebuild of this on my main F13 machine and am seeing no issues. Having said that the changes to the specfile were considerable. So please be on the lookout for anything weird in Python-land in rawhide (e.g. when rebuilding python extension modules). Hope I didn't break anything; please file bugs if I did... Dave -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
