An easier fix is to temporarily add ", python2.3" (note the comma) to the "supported-versions" entry in /usr/share/python/debian_defaults:
$ cat /usr/share/python/debian_defaults [DEFAULT] default-version = python2.4 supported-versions = python2.4, python2.3
Unfortunately, the installation/removal of python2.3 package does not add/remove the proper supported-versions value on the file above.
Since I don't know very much about python packages I can't tell for sure, but may be changing that file before executing pycentral should fix the bug.
