Attached is the patch documenting the changes I've applied. Is this
OK?
When building the package I get two warnings:
- W: dh_python2:90: Python 2.7 should install files in
/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/. Did you forget "--install-layout=deb"?
- dpkg-gencontrol: warning: package rubber: unused substitution variable
${python:Versions}
Can I ignore the first one for now? I don't understand the second
one, there is no substitution variable like this in debian/control.
Finally I'm not sure if the "Before you begin" section on
http://wiki.debian.org/Python/TransitionToDHPython2 is relevant for
me. Please advise!

Until now there exista a file called debian/pyversions . It just
contained a "-" . I guess this specification is not necessary at all.

This gave me a few more things to fix, I killed a few of them, but
not all.
Thanks,
