Bug#492921: python-gobject should conflict on old python2.5, not depend

Package: python-gobject
Version: 2.14.2-1

python-gobject depends on python >=2.4 and <2.6, which means someone
could have a python 2.4 only system and be fine, yet it also
automagically pulls in python2.5, presumably because there's something
wrong with python 2.5 <2.5.2-5. As this is the case, shouldn't
python-gobject conflict on python2.5 < 2.5.2-5 rather than having the
>= Depends? This is a pretty minor issue, and probably only one for
backporters, but I figured I'd bring it up anyways.

Thanks,

Tom Parker
