  * CVE-2007-4965, http://bugs.python.org/issue1179:
    Multiple integer overflows in the imageop module in Python 2.5.1 and
    earlier allow context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service
    (application crash) and possibly obtain sensitive information (memory
    contents) via crafted arguments to (1) the tovideo method, and unspecified
    other vectors related to (2) imageop.c, (3) rbgimgmodule.c, and other
    files, which trigger heap-based buffer overflows.

python2.5 (2.5.1-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * Python-2.5.1 release.
  * Build-depend on gcc-4.1 (>= 4.1.2-4) on alpha, powerpc, s390, sparc.
  * Merge from Ubuntu:
    - Add debian/patches/subprocess-eintr-safety.dpatch (LP: #87292):
      - Create and use wrappers around read(), write(), and os.waitpid() in the
        subprocess module which retry the operation on an EINTR (which happens
        if e. g. an alarm was raised while the system call was in progress).
        It is incredibly hard and inconvenient to sensibly handle this in
        applications, so let's fix this at the right level.
      - Patch based on original proposal of Peter <C3><85>strand
        in http://python.org/sf/1068268.
      - Add two test cases.
    - Change the interpreter to build and install python extensions
      built with the python-dbg interpreter with a different name into
      the same path (by appending `_d' to the extension name). The debug build
      of the interpreter tries to first load a foo_d.so or foomodule_d.so
      extension, then tries again with the normal name.
    - When trying to import the profile and pstats modules, don't
      exit, add a hint to the exception pointing to the python-profiler
      package, don't exit.
    - Keep the module version in the .egg-info name, only remove the
      python version.
    - python2.5-dbg: Install Misc/SpecialBuilds.txt, document the
      debug changes in README.debug.
  * Update to 20070425, taken from the 2.5 release branch.

python2.5 (2.5-6) unstable; urgency=medium

  * webbrowser.py: Recognize other browsers: www-browser, x-www-browser,
    iceweasel, iceape.
  * Move pyconfig.h from the python2.5-dev into the python2.5 package;
    required by builds for pure python modules without having python2.5-dev
    installed (matching the functionality in python2.4).
  * Move the unicodedata module into python2.5-minimal; allows byte compilation
    of UTF8 encoded files.
  * Do not install anymore outdated debhelper sample scripts.
  * Install Misc/SpecialBuilds.txt as python2.5-dbg document.

python2.5 (2.5-3.1) unstable; urgency=low

  * Non-maintainer upload.
  * python2.5-minimal depends on python-minimal (>= 2.4.4-1) because it's the
    first version which lists python2.5 as an unsupported runtime (ie a
    runtime that is available but for which modules are not auto-compiled).
    And being listed there is required for python-central to accept the
    installation of python2.5-minimal. Closes: #397006

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).

    provides the default python version.

  * 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.

    program (closes: #115943).

  * idle2 is renamed idle-python2 and now build correctly (closes: #82218).
  * Add build-dependency on autoconf (closes: #85339).
  * Build bsddbmodule as shared module (Modules/Setup.config.in),
    and link libpython2.so with -lm in Makefile (closes: #86027).
  * various cleanups in debian/rules, e.g. removing dh_suidregister.
  * Make pdb available as /usr/bin/pdb-python2 in python2-dev
    (cf. #79870 in python-base).
  * Remove libgmp3 from build-dependencies, since we currently can't
    build the mpzmodule for Python2 due to license problems.

python2 (2.0-4) unstable; urgency=low

  * control: make python2-elisp conflict with python-elisp (it doesn't
    make sense to have both of them installed, does it ?)
  * include build-depend on libxmltok1-dev.
  * again, build with tcl/tk8.0.

python2 (2.0-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Aaargh. Remove conflicts/provides/replaces on python-base to make
    parallel installation of python-base and python2-base possible.
  * Install examples into /usr/share/doc/python2 (not python) and fix
    symlink to python2.0 (thanks to Rick Younie <younie@home.com> for
    pointing out this).
  * Rename man page to python2.1.
