@Scott: Yes, that is probably a good idea (needs to be tested, the whole
unpack/configure cycle is crucial for the problem to appear or not.

I think it really only affects python-qt4 because it carries data in 
/var/lib/python-support/python-$ver. This dir is for all (most [1]) other 
packages automatically managed (created/removed) by python-support. But pyqt4 
uses pycentral so some compatibility love is required. This all is still far 
from ideal, if I run:
# update-python-modules --force-rebuild-all
the symlink is gone afterwards. python-support takes this dir as its territory. 
Aolution is probably to write the right kind of file tto 
/usr/share/python-support/ to ensure it auto-creates the symlinks on rebuild, 
but I don't have enough inside in pysupport for a offhand solution. The real 
prolbem IMO is that a) python-central/python-support behave differently b) the 
python symlink famring that is not as robust as plain dpkg

Cheers,
 Michael
