Problems moving to dh_python2

[Johannes Ring <johannr@simula.no>]

Hi,

I'm in the process of moving some of my packages from python-central
to dh_python2 and I have run into a problem with one of them (ufc).
This package is CMake based and uses SWIG to build an extension module
for Python, and I was earlier using the following to handle this in
debian/rules:

binary-install/python-ufc::
        dh_pycentral -p$(cdbs_curpkg)

I replaced dh_pycentral with dh_python2 but that results in the
following error when I try to build the package:

dh_python2 --verbose -ppython-ufc

    msg = msg % self.args

Any idea what went wrong?
