[Python-apps-team] odd problem with /usr/bin/hg hash bang

Hi,

When I backported the mercurial 3.0-1 package in unstable, something odd 
happened. The hash bang at the top of the installed /usr/bin/hg was 
#!/usr/bin/python2.6

This is peculiar. The last version I backported, which was 2.9, does not 
have this problem. It has #!/usr/bin/python as expected.

I also downloaded the mercurial 3.0 unstable deb file, and this also has 
#!/usr/bin/python.

So something seems to be going wrong on wheezy. Can anyone try to 
reproduce? Thanks.

                                                          Regards, Faheem
