The preferred specification for the Python interpreter is /usr/bin/python or /usr/bin/pythonX.Y. This ensures that a Debian installation of python is used and all dependencies on additional python modules are met.
If a maintainer would like to provide the user with the possibility to override the Debian Python interpreter, he may want to use /usr/bin/env python or /usr/bin/env pythonX.Y. However this is not advisable as it bypasses Debian's dependency checking and makes the package vulnerable to incomplete local installations of python. |

At least once this resulted in ValueError: Unable to guess signature from an empty dict for a user with a custom python installation in /usr/local. |
