Comment 8 for bug 824440

And now for the good news: Ubuntu Oneiric ships libboost-python 1.46.1, which is compiled against python 3.2:

$ dpkg -c libboost-python1.46.1_1.46.1-5ubuntu2_amd64.deb
[…]
-rw-r--r-- root/root 311136 2011-06-03 21:30 ./usr/lib/libboost_python-py26.so.1.46.1
-rw-r--r-- root/root 311136 2011-06-03 21:30 ./usr/lib/libboost_python-py27.so.1.46.1
-rw-r--r-- root/root 307040 2011-06-03 21:30 ./usr/lib/libboost_python-py32.so.1.46.1
[…]

This means I’ll soon be able to work seriously on porting whatever needs to be ported to make pyexiv2 work with py3k.

In the meantime, Vincent’s help is invaluable. Thanks Vincent!
