Thanks for the quick reply Cristian. Glad to see that it's already
uploaded. The fact that it is built against python 2.5 in Debian won't
be a problem as Ubuntu imports the source packages and rebuilds them. I
just built libtorrent-rasterbar with python 2.6 and can confirm that it
successfully builds.

It looks like we're still going to need a Ubuntu patch for the packaging
to install to usr/lib/python*/dist-packages/ instead of
usr/lib/python*/site-packages/

Thanks,

Andrew
