Title:
New python ctypes bindings not included in python-subversion package
Status in “subversion” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Binary package hint: subversion
Since 1.5, subversion now has two different python bindings. One is
swig based, the other is ctypes based. The new ctypes one lives in
/bindings/ctypes-python/, eg
http://svn.collab.net/viewvc/svn/trunk/subversion/bindings/ctypes-
python/
Currently, the python-subversion package only includes the swig
bindings
The ctype bindings seem to allow for more succinct code, and
potentially fewer problems with callbacks (as discussed at
http://svn.haxx.se/dev/archive-2008-08/0748.shtml for example)
So, I'd suggest that the python-subversion package should be extended
to also hold the ctypes bindings, in addition to the current swig
ones.
