Bug Description

balazar 0.1-4 FTBFS due to python2.5 to python 2.6 transition

log can be found at: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/26493165/buildlog_ubuntu-karmic-i386.balazar3_0.1-4_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz

The FTBFS is due to a call of 'python2.5 setup.py' in debian/rules was fixed by changing to 'python setup.py'.
I could have also fixed by changing to python2.6 ... but I didn't notice anything in setup.py that would be version specific so I went for the more general solution in the future of using just python with no version.

One of the packages also depends: python2.5 so I updated that to python2.6

I verified package builds correctly with pbuilder.

Please check the next time if there is already a bug open about it.

I've merged now the first bug to this one, as this debdiff looks better.
I didn't check if the setup.py install call needs the usual "--install-layout=deb" or not. Please check that no file ends getting install to /usr/local.

Oh, sorry, I didn't really realize the bug was the same (and I read this bug description too... must have more coffe ;) )

About --install-layout=deb, it doesn't seem to be needed, as the maintainer explicitly specify all the destination, and there's no file on /usr/local/.
Indeed I prefer to change all the occurrence of "python2.5" with python, instead of "python2.6"... It seems to me much more general.
( my debdiff lack of the change in debian/control )
