If you can't build a version for python 2.5 because of wxwidgets, it's a
problem, but your package is still broken. Instead of hardcoding the
python version to 2.4, it should at least, in this case, use
"XS-Python-Version: current" and use `pyversions -d` to detect the
current default version.

This way, we will be able to just binNMU your package right after
python2.5 has been uploaded.

Well, I guess the python maintainer will still want the Debian version
to lag behind the Ubuntu one.
