Subject: Bug#524854: python-lunar fails to install in squeeze;
update-python-modules fails
To: Debian Bug Tracking System <submit@bugs.debian.org>


Package: python-lunar
Version: 2.0.1-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable


When aptitude tried to install python-lunar, it said: <quote>

Errors were encountered while processing:
 python-lunar
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
A package failed to install.  Trying to recover:
Setting up python-lunar (2.0.1-1) ...
Usage: update-python-modules [-v] [-c] package_directory [...]
      update-python-modules [-v] [-c] package.dirs [...]
      update-python-modules [-v] [-al-fl-p]

update-python-modules: error:
/usr/share/python-support/python-lunar.public is not a directory
dpkg: error processing python-lunar (--configure):

Errors were encountered while processing:
 python-lunar
Press return to continue.

</quote> (give or take any typos when I transcribed it from the
console).  A freshly-started python session is subsequently unable to
import lunar, so the package is unusable.
