Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: python-twisted-core

I am currently on Feisty. On generating a deb file using tap2deb an
incorrect dependency upon python2.5-twisted was created, but the correct
dependency was upon python-twisted:

After attempting to install the broken package created by tap2deb using
dpkg, apt-get reported:

The following packages have unmet dependencies.
  spamcollector: Depends: python2.5-twisted but it is not installable
E: Unmet dependencies. Try ‘apt-get -f install’ with no packages (or specify a 
solution).

To fix it I edited line 188 in the tap2deb.py script resulting in the
following diff:

[EMAIL 
PROTECTED]:/usr/share/pycentral/python-twisted-core/site-packages/twisted/scripts#
 diff tap2deb.py tap2deb.py.bak
188c188
< Depends: python-twisted
---
> Depends: python%(python_version)s-twisted
[EMAIL 
PROTECTED]:/usr/share/pycentral/python-twisted-core/site-packages/twisted/scripts#
 man diff
Reformatting diff(1), please wait...

I then regenerated the deb package and it installed correctly.
