Package: dh-make
Version: 0.40
Severity: wishlist

In rules template for single or multi packages, dh_installinit is 
written before dh_python.

This is a problem when packaging daemon written in Python, as the
generated postinst script starts the program before bytecode
compilation, causing strange behaviours on upgrade/reinstallation.

I had to call dh_python earlier than dh_installinit in my package and
wonder if this change should be applied to dh-make templates.
