Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: python-support
The problem appeared somewhere during piecewise upgrade from dapper to
edgy, which I have now finished. I am unable to import any python
modules except those that reside in /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages.
The file /usr/lib/python2.4/python-support.pth is dangling symling to
/var/lib/python-support/python2.4/.path, which does not exist (that
directory is empty).
I tried running "update-python-modules -f" but it doesn't change
anything. I do not have any customized configs in /etc/python*/ .
Thanks for any help. Additional information below, ask fo more if neede.
Regards, VS.
