So, there are no files in the package? Is this the sign of a bug?
$ apt-cache depends python-examples
python-examples
Depends: python
Depends: python2.4-examples
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Examply goodness lives here.

Here's one on my system that works easily (no special input needed):
/usr/share/doc/python2.4/examples/Demo/curses/life.py
It's executable, so you can just run it. I see a proliferation of
README files in examples/Demo and subdirectories, and each example
that I've looked at has usage information at the top, so "less" should
tell you what you need to know to get things working.
