Bug Description
Binary package hint: friendly-recovery
From /usr/share/
for v in 2.5 2.6; do
python=
script=
…
This has two bugs:
• Ubuntu has Python 2.6 and 2.7 now. (Perhaps the version list should be automatically generated from /usr/share/
• As of Python 2.6, site-packages was renamed to dist-packages.

Thanks for your report. Confirmed in Oneiric. Setting to triaged/medium because even if friendly-recovery is a core component it will still work relying on apt rather than update-manager to recover from a dpkg failure.
