On a routine update on my Debian Squeeze system I get the following:
Quote:
running python rtupdate hooks for python2.5...
file does not exist: /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/_spe/plugins/kiki
file does not exist: /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/_spe/plugins/wxGlade

error running python rtupdate hook pycentral
Updating *.pc symlinks for python-gtk2-dev...
dpkg: error processing python (--configure):
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 4
I see both the kiki and the wxGlade scripts in the folder where rtupdate is looking for them but both files are empty (0 bytes).
Any ideas on how to fix this?
Thanks,

Problem solved. It turned out that the culprit was Stani's Python Editor (the spe package). I removed the package and it took the other two culprits, kiki and wxGlade with it. Then everything unjammed and all my python packages configured properly and all is well. I can't even remember why I wanted SPE. I don't recall every having used it.
