There's currently not a whole lot of visible changes, but there have been a number of bug fixes and improvements under the covers. Please give it whirl and report any problems here.
It's not part of the automated build system yet, but I've included a set of .deb packages for Ubuntu Dapper. When I do the actual release then I'll put them in the apt repository like I did for the 2.6.3.2 packages.

Hi Robin,
will be fixed also the issue I reported about the scintilla debug assertion messages?
I know it's a lot of storage space to ask, but what do you think about making wx builds for the python-2.5b1 that is getting ready to come out? That would help us lucky bleeding edge people to test our apps a little earlier.
Thanks!

Hi,
A new test build of wxPython has been uploaded to starship.

I haven't been able to duplicate the problem, and I'm a bit reluctant to just remove the assertion without understanding why it is failing. Do you get the assertion when running the wxPython demo, or just in your app?

I usually do start making builds when the Python betas come out, at least on Windows. So it's on my list.

It does not happen so many times, and i cannot give you the steps for reproduce it
so i cannot reproduce using the demo, but only with my application (only because i use it all the day)
I have the same report from many people using my app and so I decided to look into the scintilla mailing list archive. the only thing I founded was a post from Neil which says:
useCount was introduced in 1.67 to help debug situations where an
element in the line cache was being changed while it was being used.
The rule now is that only one element (line) from the line cache may
be referenced at a time and useCount counts the number of references
handed out. PLATFORM_ASSERT is only active in debug builds and
situations where multiple references are handed out may work OK in
practice.
but i think you can just remove the assertion from the .cxx source without problem.
Awesome! Would it be too much to ask for Universal Mac beta builds this round, too?
Thanks,

You mean Python 2.5b1 beta builds for Universal Python? Currently I only have one Intel Mac, but I do Python development work on that, so I don't want to install the 2.5 beta quite yet.
It would be nice if we could get together some donations to get Robin an Intel Mac :-), but in the meantime, I think I'm the only one setup to make the builds and I would like to wait at least until the 2.5 Mac installer's been out in the wild a bit first.
Regards,
Kevin

Yep, that's what I'm thinking. We do quite a bit of development with wx and python on both Windows and MacOSX. One of my roles is to look forward to things coming out -- and Python 2.5 is certainly on that list. We are looking forward to switching over to 2.5 for a few projects due this fall. Thus the request.

I can certainly understand that! Currently I'm running python 2.3, 2.4, and 2.5 all on the same box at the same time. No problems so far, other than making sure 'python' defaults to python 2.4 instead of 2.5.
Thanks for your reply Kevin! And it would be really nice to get Robin an Intel Mac. One of our developers got the high end Mac-mini and Parallels. He can cross-test his applications with such ease it just makes me sick!

Actually, I've recently gotten one, but I still need to get a new LCD to be able to have a monitor hooked up to it. I had planned on sharing the Apple Display on my other machine and got a DVI-USB-KVM switch, but I forgot that it's not a DVI but a proprietary connection. (And my other KVM is already full.) So in the meantime I'm accessing the new mac via VNC, which is not real nice.
I should probably get a memory upgrade for it too...

I've heard some good things about Parallels. Maybe by the time I'm ready to replace my "monster" machine there will be a new Intel Mac model worthy of filling the position.
