This package now fails to build in Ubuntu; apparently the python 2.6 compatibility fix in Debian is wrong, the package is being stopped by a check on the Ubuntu buildds that blocks anything installing to site-packages:

Found files in /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages (must be in dist-packages for python2.6).
debian/python-magic/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages
debian/python-magic/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/magic.so
debian/python-magic/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/Magic_file_extensions-0.1-py2.6.egg-info
dh_builddeb: dpkg-deb returned exit code 1

See <http://launchpadlibrarian.net/36461620/buildlog_ubuntu-lucid-amd64.file_5.03-3_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz>.

Please fix this bug.
