Something is going wrong with update-python-modules, which is in the python-support package. I don't know what, though. I would suggest that you write to debian-pyt...@lists.debian.org with this question -- they should know which package is at fault (I'm guessing that one of your Python packages somehow corrupted the registry of installed Python modules, but I don't know how to find out which one).
