For python2.6 this is wrong as it looks for modules in /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages. This is usually a problem in upstream installation script blindly assuming site-packages. > So why are the build module files for Python 2.5 additionally installed? Because you wrote that this package works on all python version >= 2.5. And in Karmic the supported python version are 2.5 and 2.6. So the module gets also build for python2.5 (in case someone wants to use it with python2.5). > What do I need to change in my control file in order to get only the > Python 2.6 files installed on systems where 2.6 is the default Python > version? Does it make the package that bigger that you don't want it? Do you have a reason for not supporting python2.5?
