Even when Python2-6 appears in unstable, it is most probably a problem 
still as long as not being the default, due to some Python modules only 
compiled for the default Python version (multi-version Python module 
support is optional and raise packaging complexity considerably except 
when using CDBS, which is discouraged for other reasons by some 
developers).

Kind regards,
