Public bug reported: The python-phidgets package (in Lucid at least) is empty: it contains only the changelog and other minimal info.
I suggest that if this cannot be fixed in the available time you have, at least remove the package, because it is very confusing: it took me some time to figure out why my python code wasn't working although I had installed the package... According to this bug report (http://bugs.debian.org/441783) the original maintainer decided to quit.
