pySerial update request

[bmarkus]

There is 2.5rc2 in the repo while final upstream 2.5 is now available. Kindly request to update it.

[Juanito]

In fact pyserial-2.7 is version 2.5, I just forgot to update the version in the info file.

Thanks - corrected now 

[bmarkus]

What is about pyserial.tcz ? There I see 2.5rc2 too

I don't see pyserial in any dep files, so perhaps the python 2.7 version could be named pyserial.tcz.

pyserial-2.7.tcz works with Python 2.7 only, see:

Yeah, pyserial-2.7 is for 2.7 and the current pyserial is for 2.6, but several times I have asked publicly if folks would follow the 2.7 naming convention after we saw 2.7 things coming in without the 2.7 suffix, and neither a discussion resulted nor compliance among all contributors.  Also, some extensions that depend on python would need to factor out their python component into a separate extension that uses the -2.x name since the libraries of the main extensions can be used by extensions that are either python 2.6 or 2.7 dependent.  But the -2.7 naming suffix would need to be followed by all as a minimum for further factoring to work for those extensions that need it.  And that is the reason I made the last post in the python-2.7 thread.
