** Changed in: python-support (Ubuntu)
Status: In Progress
After applying the patch from the merge proposal, debs build correctly
with the site-packages dirs for python2.7 stripped out.
However, they are still not byte compiled properly.
I am attaching the output of update-python-modules --verbose -f
