I'm afraid I can't reproduce that. Could you please send the output of
the following commands:
      * dpkg -L python-gtk2
      * find /usr/share/python-support/python-gtk2
      * ls -l /usr/bin/python*
      * ls -l /var/lib/python-support

Did you do anything unusual with these packages before upgrading them?

Thanks,
