Bug Description
Binary package hint: python-xlib
(This may be related to Bug #75539)
Python-xlib modules seem not to be compiled for python2.4, even if it is the default python version on edgy.
$ python
Python 2.4.4c1 (#2, Oct 11 2006, 21:51:02)

ImportError: No module named Xlib

The egg-info file is only installed into /usr/lib/
This bug is fixed in feisty (maybe a bug of python-support on edgy?): it is installed to a standard python-support directory /usr/share/
The proposed debdiff moves this file to this directory, and it seems to work, since building pypanel using it produces a "full" package (which contains pypanel binary)
I'll provide further informations if needed (build log, correct debian/changelog), but since the motu-src process is changing, I don't know what is still needed.
