OK this is more broken than I thought ... pyversions -vr (no -n) returns

LinuxMint _sometimes_
2.6 2.7

On all the other Debian and Ubuntu systems the answer is
pyversions: error parsing Python-Version attribute

_if_ it returns "2.6 2.7" the build breaks, otherwise the for loop in
debian/rules is not run (which also seems bad).

This is not doing anything to make we want to learn python!

OK, the output from pyversions -vr depends on where you are in the file system!!

in $HOME - pyversions: error parsing Python-Version attribute
in $HOME/src - pyversions: error parsing Python-Version attribute
in $HOME/src/pcp - 2.6 2.7 on LinuxMint, 2.7 on Ubuntu
in $HOME/src/pcp/src - pyversions: error parsing Python-Version attribute

believe it or not, pyversions appears to be reading _our_ debian/control file not one belonging to the python installation

and on my LinuxMint I have /usr/lib/python2.6 and /usr/lib/python2.7 but on Ubuntu only /usr/lib/python2.7. In both distros, only python2.7 is installed (the LinuxMint has a bunch of pkgs using /usr/lib/python2.6, there are none on the Ubuntu systems)
