Thanks!

FWIW bzr builds fine on perl.debian.net. Maybe locale related,
or a spurious timing issue ? See also #883743

The other one, python-stetl, looks interesting. I can reproduce it on
perl.debian.net. The error

 File "/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/.pybuild/cpython2_2.7_stetl/build/stetl/inputs/ogrinput.py", line 77, in init
     self.gdal.UseExceptions()
 AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'UseExceptions'

looks like our rebuilt python-gdal is broken somehow. Indeed, those
binaries yield

  # python -c 'import gdal'
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
    File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gdal.py", line 2, in <module>
      from osgeo.gdal import deprecation_warn
    File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/osgeo/__init__.py", line 21, in <module>
      _gdal = swig_import_helper()
    File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/osgeo/__init__.py", line 17, in swig_import_helper
      _mod = imp.load_module('_gdal', fp, pathname, description)
  ImportError: dynamic module does not define init function (init_gdal)

So next thing to try would be to rebuild gdal on sid and see if it
breaks similarly. I guess it could be a change in swig or just binNMU
fragility...
