I just ran into a interessting variant of this bug. It seems to be
important in what order the packages get installed for them to be byte-
compiled (done on a current jaunty chroot):

[chroot1]
# apt-get install python-distutils-extra
# apt-get install python2.4
# ls /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/
README

[chroot2]
# apt-get install python2.4
# apt-get install python-distutils-extra
# ls /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/
DistUtilsExtra  README  python_distutils_extra-0.90.egg-info

I think this will be fixed with the new python-central upload that fixes
(#357884).

But there is still the inconsitency that the rtinstall scripts are not run when 
the new 2.4 runtime
gets installed (because of:
    if ! grep -sq '^supported-versions[^#]*python2.4' 
/usr/share/python/debian_defaults

But if a package gets (re)installed then pycentral creates the links for it. If 
its intentional, I find
it confusing :)
