Why is this package dependent? Why not look in /var/lib/dpkg/info/$pkg.postint for the strings "Automatically added by dh_python" and "compileall.py" and if they are found you accept all .pyo and .pyc files in the directories enumerated in DIRLIST > In fact cruft already does that for five packages, thus closing this > bug. This isn't a really generic way and I'm sure it can be done in a more generic way that makes it obsolete to have for every package a special file.
