One of the problems that remains is: W: libsigar: package-installs-python-pyc usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/sigar.pyc N: N: Compiled python source files should not be included in the package. N: These files should be removed from the package and created at package N: installation time in the postinst. N: N: Severity: normal, Certainty: certain How can I only compile in installation time? I'm using this command in rule file to install the files: cd $(CURDIR)/bindings/python && python setup.py install --install-layout=deb --root=$(CURDIR)/debian/$(PACKAGE) Thanks!
