Bug Description

Binary package hint: python-distutils-extra

Ubuntu karmic
python-distutils-extra version 2.12 (= version given by synaptic)

However in the terminal I get:
>>> DistUtilsExtra.auto.__version__
'2.10'

Should the version of python-distutils-extra not be the same as the version of DistUtilsExtra.auto?

I only bump the version of the auto module if I actually change something in it. The package version 2.16 just changed python-mkdebian, which didn't change the DistUtilsExtra module API (including .auto) at all. Since this is mostly done for testing in setup.py files for feature compatibility, it doesn't need to be bumped every time.
