Dpkg is right :/usr/share/python-support/python-elementtree.public is
not a directory, it's a file.


I guess I should just wait ??

It's because of this bug: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=524303

Basically, you can just wait until the newer version hits testing or upgrade your version of python-support from the unstable branch.

Hope that helps.
