Comment 1 for bug 1001912

Python policy says:

A common location to share, across Python versions, arch-independent files which would otherwise go to the directory of system public modules is /usr/share/pyshared. For python3, a special location is not required, use /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages.

At this point this is a gratuitous change from Debian. There's no need for it and it should be coordinated. Removing the infrastructure to support multiple Python versions is something that should be discussed and agreed in Debian (with Python policy changes) before it's done in Ubuntu. There's nothing driving Ubuntu to rush on this.
