Bug#642938: yade: needs tight dependency on python

Package: yade
Version: 0.60.3-2
Severity: serious
Justification: Debian Policy 3.5, Python Policy 3.3.1

Your package ships Python extensions modules in a private directory, so 
it needs a tight dependency on python (i.e. "python (>= 2.X), python (<< 
2.{X+1})").

python-support would normally generate such dependency for you, but 
since they are linked with libpython2.X (they shouldn't be; see Python 
Policy 2.1 for details), it cannot distinguish them from other shared 
libraries simply embedding the Python interpreter.
