Alter .deb package for Ubuntu Natty?

[GoogleCodeExporter]

The python version requirements in the Debian package (from the ppa) conflict 
with the python version that ships with Ubuntu Natty by default, but I don't 
believe this is a necessary conflict:

python-cjklib depends on python (<< 2.7); however:
Version of python on system is 2.7.1-0ubuntu5.

I understand it's too early to support Python 3, but surely sub-versions of 2.7 
can be accommodated? Is it just a matter of adjusting the package requirements?

Works with 2.7.1 in archlinux.

Thanks for the report.
I might not have the time to update the package right now, however. 
I have tried to document how to create ubuntu packages under 
http://code.google.com/p/cjklib/source/browse/trunk/DEVELOPMENT

You need to install
http://github.com/astraw/stdeb
and then follow the steps under "Ubuntu" (line #134).
You don't need to own a ppa, you can just omit the last step and use the 
resulting .deb on your own system.

I'll be happy to provide further assistance if you are interested.

I currently don't have the time to build and maintain packages. You can create 
packages yourself as documented in 
http://code.google.com/p/cjklib/source/browse/trunk/DEVELOPMENT.

Also there seem to be PPAs for Ubuntu that offer packaged versions of cjklib, 
e.g. https://launchpad.net/~marcspitz/+archive/eclectus.

I'd be happy if somebody could continue to offer up-to-date packages and I will 
help where needed.

I am closing this bug as wontfix for now.
