Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: python2.5

As of 2.5, python includes a function:

ctypes.util.find_library

for finding dynamic libraries.

On Linux, this is implemented by calling objdump under the hood. objdump
in ubuntu comes from binutils, ergo python now has a dependency on
binutils.

In the absence of binutils, attempts to use this function simply fail
silently, with no indication of the reason for failure.

** Affects: python2.5 (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
