[Debichem-devel] Bug#617758: mmass: Use default python version instead of hardcoded python2.6

[Fabrice Coutadeur]

Package: mmass
Version: 3.9.0-1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
User: ubuntu-devel at lists.ubuntu.com

Hi,

Default python version is python2.7 in Ubuntu and your package contains
hardcoded reference to python2.6. Please use generic python references to make
your package compatible with python2.7.

*** /tmp/tmp5Llizj
In Ubuntu, we've applied the attached patch to achieve the following:

  * debian/control: rebuild for python2.7 defaults
    - updated b-d on python2.6-dev to python-dev 
    - deleted hardcoded dependency on python as this is generated by
      python:Depends
  * debian/rules: use python instead of python2.6
  * debian/mass.install: updated to be compatible with python2.7

We thought you might be interested in doing the same (except the maintainer
change that is included in the debdiff but do not apply to Debian obviously). 
Thanks,
Fabrice
