dh_python doesn't work for Python 2.6

[J. D. Bartlett]

When running the command pythonpackage trosnoth, I get the following results as part of the output.

dh_python -V 2.6 -p python2.6-trosnoth
dh_python: This program is deprecated, you should use dh_pysupport or dh_pycentral instead.
dh_python: Unknown python version 2.6
