Sorry, I'm unable to reproduce this problem - it works fine on squeeze
(and Ubuntu intrepid which I had to hand).

I don't really see what could be going wrong either - /usr/lib/python2.4
should be a directory, and appears to be in both packages.

What version of python-profiler do you have installed?  This command
will tell you:

    dpkg -s python-xapian|grep ^Version

Perhaps it is worth checking that /usr/lib/python2.4 is actually a
directory on your file system (but if it has somehow got replaced by a
file, I'd imagine you'd have seen other consequences):

    ls -ld /usr/lib/python2.4

Cheers,
    Olly
