python2.1 (2.1.3-2) unstable; urgency=low
* According to report #131813, the python interpreter is much faster on some
architectures, when beeing linked statically with the python library (25%).
Gregor and me tested on i386, m68k and alpha, but we could not reproduce
such a speedup (generally between 5% and 10%). But we are linking the
python executable now statically (closes: #131813).
* Tighten the dependency of the python-foo packages on python2.1-foo
(>= 2.1.3), not (>= 2.1.2).

python2.1 (2.1.2-3) unstable; urgency=high
* Sorry, not including the python-registry ... I'm away from my
mail and couldn't fix the errors I would definitely introduce ...
* Revert the patch for fixing #97146 and return to the upstream
behaviour (closes: #135461): Don't load modules with RTLD_GLOBAL.
Upstream has rejected the patch:
"They (Debian) claim that this "solves" bug debbug:97146, and that it
is a good thing to copy that strategy from Redhat. This is foolish;
the use of RTLD_GLOBAL has been stopped since Python 1.5.2 precisely
to avoid the problem you are now seeing, and Redhat should have never
changed the Python source in that way.
Any library that relies on RTLD_GLOBAL needs to be fixed (through
exposure of CAPI objects); any application that relies on RTLD_GLOBAL
can use sys.setdlopenflags (available since Python 2.2)."
* Updates from the CVS python21-maint branch up to 20020315.
Mostly documentation fixes.
* python2.1-elisp: Conflict with python2-elisp (closes: #132225).

this format is disclosed.
* mimetypes.py: Add `/etc/mime.types' to `known_files' (closes: #128845).

a dependency, because pythonX.Y-doc-info conflict to each other.
Planned to merge these packages, when the info docs can be built from
the source docs. Help is appreciated.
* python-mode.el: Don't try to write in /usr/tmp, because this may not
be writeable by the ordinary user (closes: #128296).
* Add Lib/test/{__init__.py,pystone.py,README} to python package.
* python, python2.1: Change priority to standard. Addresses: #117582.
* fcntlmodule: Add constants (backport from 2.2). Closes: #129102.

python2.1 (2.1.1-1.1) unstable; urgency=low
* README FOR PACKAGE MAINTAINERS: It is planned to remove the python2-XXX
packages from unstable and move on to python2.1.
If you repackage/adapt your modules for python2.1, don't build
python2-XXX and python2.1-XXX packages from the same source package,
so that the python2-XXX package can be removed without influencing the
python2.1-XXX package.
See the debian-python mailing list at http://lists.debian.org/devel.html
for details and the current discussion and a draft for a debian-python
policy (August to October 2001).
* Remove alternative for /usr/bin/python. The python-base package now
provides the default python version.
* Regenerate control file to fix build dependencies (closes: #116190).
* Remove alternative for /usr/bin/{python,pydoc}.
* Provide a libpython2.1.so symlink in /usr/lib/python2.1/config,
so that the shared library is found when -L/usr/lib/python2.1/config
is specified.
* Conflict with old package versions, where /usr/bin/python is a real
program (closes: #115943).
* python2.1-elisp conflicts with python-elisp (closes: #115895).
* We now have 2.1 (closes: #96851, #107849, #110243).
