Comment:

 Ooh, I get it.  [4-tea-2] didn't build the {{{.egg-info}}} himself, it
 came with the .deb that we built.  So, we have to decide whether we want
 our .deb to depend on {{{python-pysqlite}}}, or whether we want it to not
 completely support Python 2.4 (or we could even build different .deb's for
 each Python version).  I'm okay with either of those two options.  (Not so
 much with the Python-version-specific debs option.)

 I guess that the build machine where the Debian packages are being created
 is using Python 2.4, so {{{pysqlite}}} is being added to the {{{.egg-
 info}}}'s {{{requires.txt}}}.

 Assigning to Brian to tell me what our policy is about .debs and pysqlite.
