[Python-modules-team] Bug#516186: elementtree: FTBFS with python-support in experimental

Package: elementtree
Version: 1.2.6-12

Hi,

The elementtree rules file contains the following:
binary-predeb/python-elementtree::
        # Which .py files to byte-compile
        echo "2.4" > debian/python-elementtree/usr/share/python-support/python-elementtree/.version

With the upcoming version of python-support (currently in experimental),
such statements will make the package FTBFS, since the files are now
moved to a different directory (/usr/share/pyshared).

As there is already a debian/pyversions file with the same contents,
this statement is moot, so you should just remove it.

Please do not rely on the internals of python-support in the packaging;
this will avoid such issues in the future (although hopefully there
won’t be a need to change the paths any further).

Thanks,
--
