[Python-modules-team] Bug#574455: python-simplejson: Python-simplejson isn't a "pure Python code" package as claimed by it's description

[Tom Parker]

Package: python-simplejson
Version: 2.0.9-2
Severity: minor

python-simplejson's description claims

"It is pure Python code with no dependencies"

when it has the _speedup.so libraries, making it not a pure Python
package. Yes, this is very pedantic, and doesn't really matter that
much, but if you're going to make that sort of claim, make sure it's
true!
