Try using python2.4, not python2.5. Python 2.5 is not yet suppported by the automated build of Python modules from Python module sources. At least not on Debian. I am not entirely sure exactly what Ubuntu does to the RPy and R packages I maintain for Debina ... as they never communicate back. It *may* well be that they try to support Python 2.5 automatically; I just don't know if include RPy. On my Debian testing system, the directory /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages is empty whereas /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages contains the on-install autobuilt files, incl rpy's.
