installation problems if the user has python 2.4

Binary package hint: specto

It seems that dpkg breaks for some users if trying to install Specto while python 2.4 is installed on the system. See http://code.google.com/p/specto/issues/detail?id=266 for more details.

Help from the ubuntu packagers would be appreciated on this issue, as I'm not sure what to do with it.

Seems that specto is incompatible with python 2.4, I can adjust the package to exclude all python version < 2.5
