Package: python2.4-minimal Version: 2.4.4-4 After a dist-upgrade last night my python2.4 installation seems broken - I seem to be unable to run any python program (at least, every one I tried failed). Including the python scripts needed during apt-get dist-upgrade, or in other words things started to fail during the upgrade (I had an interesting time getting it to finish so I would not be stuck with a completely unusable machine).
As far as I can see, I always get the same error, an example
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ reportbug
warning: Python C API version mismatch for module _locale: This Python
has
API version 1012, module _locale has version 1013.
warning: Python C API version mismatch for module time: This Python has
API
version 1012, module time has version 1013.
Traceback (most recent call last):

I am filing this here as dpkg -S
reports /usr/lib/python2.4/lib-dynload/operator.so as coming from
python2.4-minimal.
It might be of interest - to get the upgrade to finish I've exported
PYTHONPATH as
PYTHONPATH=/usr/lib/python24.zip:/usr/lib/python2.4:\\
/usr/lib/python2.4/plat-linux2:/usr/lib/python2.3:\\
/usr/lib/python2.3/plat-linux2/:/usr/lib/python2.3/lib-dynload/
which seemed to work for apt but does not work for e.g. reportbug - if I try I
get
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ PYTHONPATH=/usr/lib/python24.zip:\\

and, according to dpkg -S, /usr/lib/python2.4/lib-dynload/_struct.so does not
exist (dpkg: /usr/lib/python2.4/lib-dynload/_struct.so not found).
At which point I decided to give up and submit the bug report via email (hope
I got the formatting right).
I'm using Debian GNU/Linux lenny/sid, kernel 2.6.21-1-k7, and
libc6_2.5-11_i386.deb.
If there's any other information that you'd need I'd be happy to provide it.
Thanks,
Tina
