Hrm. That doesn't make a lot of sense. A check of the python2.3-pythoncard_0.8.1-1_all.deb using dpkg --contents shows that all of the Python files are installed to the PythonCard directory. ./usr/lib/ ./usr/lib/python2.3/ ./usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/ ./usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/PythonCard/ ./usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/PythonCard/components/ ./usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/PythonCard/components/__init__.py Do you have the python2.3-pythoncard package installed on your system as well? The dependencies should force it. How did you get these packages installed? Did they come along with an 'apt-get -u upgrade' or similar, or did you force the upgrade by just specifying those four packages by hand on the command line? Or, did you perhaps install directly using dpkg? On my system dpkg seems to (mostly) install the four packages you mentioned but then reports errors related to the missing python2.3-pythoncard package. My best theory right now is that you have an old version of the python2.3-pythoncard package installed. To confirm this, use something like this: COLUMNS=132 dpkg -l | grep pythoncard If it does turn out that you have an old version of python2.3-pythoncard installed, then I think the fix is for me to be more specific about the versioned dependencies between python-pythoncard and python2.3-pythoncard (like python-pythoncard should depend on the python2.3-pythoncard with the exact same version it has).
