No shooting intended from here for sure!  I'm very grateful for your

So I guess same question:  What options do I, as a lowly user, have to

somehow move this along, and/or get it changed, and/or get some kind of

workaround?  I know I can build from source, but I really prefer the

advantages of distro-provided packages if at all possible, not to mention

the nice /etc/alternatives and related support that OpenSuse provides.

Would it make sense, for example, to raise this on the opensuse-python

list?  Or is there some other action I could take to help facilitate?

Apologies that I lack the organizational/political knowledge here - I've

been a fan of OpenSuse from the v7 days and have always used it as my

primary, but that confers zero knowledge about the people behind the

decisions!

Thanks for any insight or pointers anyone can provide!
