[Python-modules-team] Bug#438716: extraneous dependency on python-xml?

[Kumar Appaiah]

Package: python-soappy
Version: 0.12.0-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Hi!

Is it that the package depends on python-xml extraneously? This is
because I feel the following change doesn't change my operation of the package.

13c13
< Depends: ${python:Depends}, ${misc:Depends}, python-xml (>= 0.8.4-5), python-fpconst
---
> Depends: ${python:Depends}, ${misc:Depends}, python-fpconst

Besides, I think python2.4 has all the XML dependencies which are
needed by this module.

Thanks!

Kumar
