Can I get the complete buildlog for that?

Attached.

I suspect that something regarding python version detection or include path voodoo is going wrong.

Use either

PYVERS = $(shell pyversions -dv)



PYVERS = $(shell pyversions -rv)

Well, the culpris is that you build depend on python-dev (i.e. the default version) but version 2.6 is hardcoded in debian/rules. Hardcoding versions is bad, please don't do that. :) or, in case you want to build Python extensions for more than one version: (In the latter case you'll have to chage python-dev to python-all-dev in Build-Depends.)
