Bug Description

When trying to work around Bug 342359 using jstrand's bzr branch [1], I got this error while building:

dh_install: python-vm-builder missing files (debian/tmp/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/VMBuilder/*.py), aborting
make: *** [binary-install/python-vm-builder] Error 1

I also get this error with vm-builder=0.10-0ubuntu1

The workaround was to run the following in the debian directory:

sed -i s/python2.5/python2.?/ python-vm-builder*install
sed -i s/site-packages/*-packages/ python-vm-builder*install

but then this produces python2.6 specific packages but the packaging does not reflect that.

ii python 2.6.1-0ubuntu9
ii python-all 2.6.1-0ubuntu9
ii python-all-dev 2.6.1-0ubuntu9

This bug was fixed in the package vm-builder - 0.10-0ubuntu2

---------------
vm-builder (0.10-0ubuntu2) jaunty; urgency=low

  * fix traceback due to kpartx failure (LP: #342359)
    - VMBuilder/disk.py: sleep a few seconds to give the loopback devices
      a chance to settle down, then try to unmount. If it fails, try a few
      more times and if still fails, error out as before
  * fix FTBFS due to python2.6 transition (LP: #354849)
    - debian/python-vm-builder-ec2.install: use python2.6/dist-packages path
    - debian/python-vm-builder.install: use python2.6/dist-packages path
