      module was converted into a package and renamed to test.support.  The

    Multiple integer overflows in the imageop module in Python 2.5.1 and

    (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

  * 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.

  * 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  * Do not install anymore outdated debhelper sample scripts.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.

    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

    If you repackage/adapt your modules for python2.1, don't build

    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).

    program (closes: #115943).
