Description

There was a time when there was a bug in Tahoe when used with Python 2.6. I forget the details -- maybe it had to do with Nevow using "with" as a variable name? Possibly there was more than one. Anyway, that time is long past, as we have a python 2.6 buildbot which has been consistently happy for a long time. So our deb packages should relax their requirements from python < 2.6 to python <= 2.6 (or possibly python >= 2.4.2 && python < 3?)

Dash can't install the deb's on Ubuntu 9.04 because some other packages (gobject-introspection, compiz, gimp require python >= 2.6.
