No I didn't mean that, I just told that dh_pycentral is supposed to create the substvar for you but since it doesn't I need you to answer this question: > > what's the content of the package ? Because the substvar are generated based on what python scripts and python modules are found and where they are located... try running the build with DH_VERBOSE=1 to have more info about what dh_pycentral finds. Otherwise please put up the package online somewhere so that we can check what's wrong... > > If it uses private modules, you should indicate the directory where > > they are stored as parameter to dh_pycentral. > > What are "private modules"? I've never heard that term used in Python. Python modules (or extensions) installed in a non-public/standard directory.
