Maverick has the bug, it could have been fixed. I think this state should have been "Won't Fix". I'll see if I can navigate the DistCC project, Debian system and Ubuntu system in the next few weeks.

[Bug 511585] Re: Unable to start pump server because of python version mismatch
I totally agree with you, guys, - I hate hardcoding myself. But meanwhile shouldn't we have a hackish fix that "just works (tm)" while Debian/Ubuntu Python team proposes a robust policy on how to deal with such problems? Seen from my perspective ignoring this issue because "hardcoding is bad" is not a way to go either - casual users need distcc to work out of the box regardless of how it is packaged and don't bother creating dirty symlinks/patching the source on their own. I suggest the following: 1. fix this issue with a hack (either with my patch or any other way) 2. create another one describing the python version hardcoding problem and handle it separately; this issue can address several packages at once (I don't think pump-distcc is that special with this problem) Meanwhile users can enjoy the power of pupm-distcc. -- Unable to start pump server because of python version mismatch https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/511585 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Ugh, this would fix the issue, but the behavior in Debian of hardcoding in a path is broken by design (especially since Ubuntu and Debian support concurrent installations of python side by side).
