Apt error in Debian/Sid with Python



Hello

 I have a Debian/Sid distrib and after an apt-update/apt-upgrade
i`ve encounterred this error :

Reading changelogs...
(Reading database ... 26901 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to replace python 2.3.2-4 (using .../python_2.3.2-6_all.deb)
...
Unpacking replacement python ...

dpkg: considering removing python in favour of python2.3 ...
dpkg: no, cannot remove python (--auto-deconfigure will help):

 /var/cache/apt/archives/python2.3_2.3.2-6_i386.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Someone knows what it means and how it could be solved ?
Is this a bug ?

TIA
