Ok, I found it. On the advice of others, I put a file in my /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/distutils called distutils.cfg. This file contained the following: ------------------------------- [install] install_lib = /usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages install_scripts = /usr/local/bin [easy_install] site_dirs = /usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages zip_ok = 0 ------------------------------- I use some python software that has lots of eggs and dependencies, and was advised that it's best to keep that stuff in /usr/local/lib so that it doesn't conflict with Debian-managed /usr/lib. I think that this process is detailed on the setuptools website. If I deactivate this file, the package python-zodb_3.6.0-6_amd64.deb does indeed compile cleanly with the patch supplied by Esteve. Thanks to all; I'm cooking again. I'm cc'ing James Troup, who is somehow involved in the packaging of ZODB for Ubuntu. Thanks Esteve (and all)!
