Hi all,
I have just put python-2.6.2-1 into [testing]. This remove the python-2.5 compatibility sitepath so anything not rebuilt since python-2.6 was release will be broken. The list of broken packages as of yesterday is in FS#13831 (http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/13831?getfile=3375).
Note that these don't need built against the python in [testing] to be fix, just rebuilt against an python-2.6 package.
While you're updating python, could you also link /usr/lib/libpython2.6.so to the path where libpython2.6.a is located inside the package? I did this in my build chroots, and it causes applications to link dynamic instead of static against the python library. Without this, inkscape won't even link to libpython at all.

So programs are detecting /usr/lib/python2.6/config/libpython2.6.a but not /usr/lib/libpython2.6.so.... that seem rather screwed up! I'll commit it to CVS so the change will get pulled in either when I gt around to it or with the readline rebuilds. Allan
