--- Begin Message ---package: python-support version: 1.0.3 Consider a package foo that provides both a python module (say, foo.bar) and a python program baz that imports foo.bar. With the current python-support implementation, it is not possible to run baz in the package's postinst script. What will happen is that the "import foo.bar" line of baz will fail in the postinst script with ImportError: No module named foo because /usr/lib/pymodules/python2.5/foo/__init__.py doesn't exist yet. (It is created by the python-support trigger that runs after installation completes.) It seems like one could fix this by having python-support create its empty __init__.py file when update-python-modules is run, rather than delaying until the trigger is processed. It is quite possible that this problem will also affect situations where the package running bar in its postinst script depends on the package containing foo.bar and the packages are installed at the same time, but I've not tested it. For now, I've worked around this problem by using python-central. -Tim Abbott
