This fixes symptoms, not the root cause.

First of all, the package must not ship *.pyc in the binary package. It 
should bytecompile Python modules at runtime (using a helper like 
python-support).

However, there's another problem here: version of Python that adonthell 
was linked against and version of Python for which adonthell-data files 
are bytecompiled for must match. This is currently not enforced.
