Hello,

This  is not  a special  case.  More  and more  python modules  will use
python-support, so you have usually this kind of package. Take a look at
python-enchant, python-medusa... (there are many examples).


    Peter>  Why don't you just write :DEB_PYTHON_SIMPLE_PACKAGES :=

When you this line before including python-distutils.mk, it doesn't work
because   DEB_PYTHON_SIMPLE_PACKAGES   is   initialized  into   the   mk
file. After including the mk file, it doesn't work either. This patch is
really  minor (one  line). I  have  tried several  possibilities but  it
didn't work. Only the one proposed in the patch works great for me.
