I'd also add that the same package in Ubuntu has "Depends: python-dev".
That would be another potential resolution here, but I take the current dependencies to mean that the package is useful even without Python development files installed. (I otherwise don't know enough about this package to tell whether that's accurate.) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
