+Info: The given package appears to have a Python development package
+ (python-dev, python-all-dev or pythonX.Y-dev) listed in its Build-Depends
+ or Build-Depends-Indep fields, but only "Architecture: all" packages are
+ created. Python applications and modules do not usually require such
+ packages, so you should consider removing them in favour of python,
+ python-all or pythonX.Y packages.
+ .
+ If you are building a Python extension instead, you should have
+ development packages listed in Build-Depends, but you need at least one
+ "Architecture: any" package.
