Public bug reported:

I have a problem with package python-qt4 in Ubuntu 12.04 (package
version 4.9.1-2ubuntu1). It's postinst script is failing, with:

Sorry: TypeError: ('compile() expected string without null bytes',)

If I manually type in the command in the postinst script, adding -v for
verbose, namely:

pycompile -p python-qt4 -v

I get the output:

D: pycompile:215: argv: ['/usr/bin/pycompile', '-p', 'python-qt4', '-v']
D: pycompile:216: options: {'force': False, 'verbose': True, 'package': 
'python-qt4', 'regexpr': None, 'vrange': None, 'optimize': False}
D: pycompile:217: args: []
Sorry: TypeError: ('compile() expected string without null bytes',)

(so not much more informative).

Any ideas? This happened during an Ubuntu 11.10 to 12.04 upgrade.
