Please remove python2.1 and jython

Should this package even be in the archive anymore?

OK, poking around, jython and pychecker still depend on python2.1. However jython is orphaned in Debian and appears to be pretty dead upstream. Can we jettison jython, I'll remove 2.1 from pychecker, and then morgue python2.1* ? I have subscribed doko because mdz thought he wanted to save jython? Thank you.

Waiting for Matthias' comment; in future please get any relevant comments before subscribing ubuntu-archive.

yep, removing 2.1 from pychecker is easy, removing jython as well. Please note that upstream jython is active and the current version is something in between 2.3 and 2.4. just a lack of time getting it in again.

Are you sure? I poked around google and such and the newest I could find
was a 2.2a. That was on sourceforge. jython.com only has 2.1 iirc.

Well I built a pychecker with 2.1 stripped out of it, not realizing that it is a main package so I can't upload. If someone wants to do this for me, let me know and I'll throw up my packages.

I've opted for NOT doing the pychecker upload; it's dependencies are correct (and use an OR, so they're fine, from an archive perspective).

The only remaining blocker to removing python2.1 is jython. Let us know what you'd like done with this (drop python2.1 and break jython until someone gets a new version in, wait for a new jython, whatever), and we can go from there.

OK, I have spoken to doko on IRC. Please remove python2.1 and jython from the archive. Thank you.

Have all of the other packages (build-)depending on python2.1 been fixed already?
