Ok, I found how to control the python version: XS-Python-Version

So now it is using python2.5 but dpkg-buildpackage hits an error:
error: option --single-version-externally-managed not recognized

What is this option?
I've been searching but I don't find how to solve this.
Is there a way to fix this?

Regards,
Gerry

Ok, I have a setup.py that imports stdeb and creates a 'bdist_deb' command. The entire thing is working except for the last subcommand for dpkg-buildpackage is trying to build for python2.4 and failing.

dpkg-buildpackage fails in the fakeroot...
...
debian/rules build
python2.4 -c "import setuptools,sys;f='setup.py';sys.argv[0]=f;execfile(f,{'__file__':f,'__name__':'__main__'})" build
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in ?
File "setup.py", line 35, in ?
import stdeb
ImportError: No module named stdeb
make: *** [build-python2.4] Error 1
dpkg-buildpackage: failure: debian/rules build gave error exit status 2

Is this something to do with python versions?
So how do I limit the python versions for dpkg-buildpackage?

stdeb is 0.3
$ python -V
Python 2.5.2

Ok, I got the __file__ problem solved but now I want to do this whole deb pkg create as just a single command in my own setup.py. How can I do this?

I'm thinking something like:

# my setup.py
import stdeb

Command(mycmd):
initialize_option...
finalize_option...
run
sub_commands=[('sdist_dsc', None),]
system('dpgk-source ...)
print ".deb is here..."
