[Python-apps-team] Bug#746762: mayavi2: Do not hardcode pyshared path

[Dmitry Shachnev]

Source: mayavi2
Version: 4.3.1-2

Dear Maintainer,

As 2.7 is the only supported Python 2 version in Debian, we are
going to stop creating files in /usr/share/pyshared and install
them directly to /usr/lib/python2.7 [1].

A patch to do that is already applied in Ubuntu [2].

With that patch applied, your package fails to build:

| dh_installdeb
| chmod +x /build/buildd/mayavi2-4.3.1/debian/mayavi2//usr/share/pyshared/mayavi/scripts/mayavi2.py
| chmod: cannot access '/build/buildd/mayavi2-4.3.1/debian/mayavi2//usr/share/pyshared/mayavi/scripts/mayavi2.py':
|   No such file or directory

Please do not rely on pyshared existance and support the simplified
installation layout.
