I can confirm this bug in the hardy package. The gutsy package works just fine for any version of python

[MAcks (xmacn-konto)]

Same here. Also confirmed in ZeroC forums: http://www.zeroc.com/forums/help-center/3451-problem-installing-icepy-3-2-1-a.html#post16353
The provided python 2.5 binary is built using python2.4 headers.
Rebuilding the package from source after removing python2.4, python2.4-dev (and /usr/include/python2.4) solves the situation.

Using python2.4 doesn't solve the problem.
