[Python-modules-team] Bug#445486: mod-wsgi: Adds strict dependencies for no reason

[Josselin Mouette]

Package: mod-wsgi
Version: 1.1-1
Severity: normal
Usertags: python2.5

Hi,

as discussed on debian-python yesterday, this package has strict 
dependencies on python (>= 2.4), python (<< 2.5), that are added by 
debian/rules for no reason.

As mod_wsgi only links to libpython, it will perfectly work with 
whatever python version that is the default at the time of the build. 
However, adding strict python dependencies is bad, because it will 
have to migrate to testing together with python, without it being 
necessary.

Thanks,
