Dear Maintainer,

if libpython*-dev is not installed, the build give an error

> snack.c:2:10: fatal error: Python.h: No such file or directory
>     2 | #include "Python.h"
>       |          ^~~~~~~~~~
> compilation terminated.

but the build not stops here.

# apt build-dep newt
# dpkg-buildpackage -B "-Pnocheck noinsttest noudeb nopython" -uc -us

The attached patch fix this problem. But then a build with "nopython"
will fail. To fix this, please add also patch in #1033421
