I just converted and uploaded edubuntu-menueditor.
All the others on the list except wxwidgets2.8 (python-wxgtk2.8 and
python-wxversion) don't have a more recent version in Debian though
they may still have patches available either on Launchpad or on the
Debian BTS.
wxwidgets2.8 has a new version in Debian that uses dh_python2 but it's
a fairly critical library so it's not going to be an easy merge.

Hey everyone,
One of our goals for 12.04 is to be an LTS, which means supporting
all of Edubuntu 12.04 for 3 to 5 years. To make that easier, we're
trying to limit our dependencies as much as possible.
We already got rid of freemind and geogebra to avoid inheriting all
of java and it's now time to look at our python packages.
A quick look shows the following list of packages that we ship and
rely on python-central or python-support:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BarryWarsaw/PythonHelpers calibre
edubuntu-menueditor (python-central) lybniz
(python-central) opendict (python-central)
python-cherrypy3 (python-support) python-gevent
(python-support) python-pyparsing (python-support)
python-wxgtk2.8 (python-central) python-wxversion
(python-central) python-x2go
(calibre and python-x2go depend on one of the others but aren't
themselves using python-support or python-central)
The idea is to go through the list above and convert the packaging
to dh_python2 which is the supported way of doing python packaging
nowadays.
The conversion steps look like: 1) Check on Debian's side for a
newer version of the package already using dh_python2 2) Check on
Debian's side for a patch on the bug tracker that we could use 3)
Check on Ubuntu's side for a patch on the bug tracker that we could
use 4) Convert the packaging yourself 5) Submit any change back to
Debian 6) Upload
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BarryWarsaw/PythonHelpers provides some
more information.
I'll be having a look at the package list above over the next few
days, at least convert any of these packages that's only in Ubuntu
and look for existing fixes in Debian.
If you want to help, feel free to pick any of these, just make sure

Same for opendict and Debian bug 616926.
Done for python-gevent too, have to run, will forward to Debian tomorrow.

I'll take python-pyparsing. Patch is already in Debian BTS. I'll need
a sponsor so I'll post the bug for it when it's ready.

I just uploaded it to Precise.
That list is getting really short now. The pyparsing one shouldn't be
too difficult, the wx stuff looks a bit scarier (mostly because of the
Ubuntu delta).
As a reminder, we only have these left:
- python-cherrypy3 (python-support) (source: cherrypy3)
- python-wxgtk2.8 (python-central) (source: wxwidgets2.8)
- python-wxversion (python-central) (source: wxwidgets2.8)

I just uploaded python-cherrypy3, so we're now python-support free.
I'll see if I have some time today to deal with wxwidgets2.8 (not
particularly looking forward to that ...).
Patches for gevent and cherrypy3 have both been submitted to Debian.

The Ubuntu branch is at:
https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/precise/python-x2go/precise
The interesting commit is id 3:
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/precise/python-x2go/precise/revision/3?start_revid=3
Pretty cool to see all of these now ready to enter Debian, looking
forward to having all of these in Ubuntu soon.
