Package: libboost-python1.40-dev
Version: 1.40.0-3
Severity: grave

[ grave as it makes package uninstallable ]

>From todays sid upgrade:

Setting up libboost-python1.40-dev (1.40.0-3) ...
dpkg: error processing libboost-python1.40-dev (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
 libboost-python1.40-dev
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Looking at libboost-python1.40-dev postinst, it calls rtupdate with python
version of "none" which seems to generate a non-zero exitcode.
