Package: file
Version: 4.15-1
Severity: serious

There was an error while trying to autobuild your package:

As noted, it have to build-depend against python.

How did you managed to have python not installed and have
/usr/bin/python?

python2.3-dev depends on python2.3. /usr/bin/python is provided by the
package python.
