[Python-apps-team] Bug#930457: mu-editor: debugger broken.

[Peter Green]

reassign 930457 mu-editor thanks (sorry screwed up the headers)

  Ben Nuttal recently informed my that trying to use the "debug" button in mu-editor in Debian buster results in

> Traceback (most recent call last):
>
> File "/usr/share/mu-editor/mu/mu-debug.py", line 4, in <module>
>
> from mu.app import debug
>
> ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'mu'
>
Investigation shows that this is the result of failure to find mu-related python modules. mu-editor itself finds them because the mu-editor executable (AFTER following the symlink) is located in /usr/share/mu-editor but the mu-debug helper script is in a subdirectory and so does not find them.

The simplest fix seems to be to adjust sys.path[0] in mu-debug.py I whipped up (and tested) a patch to do that. While working on that I noticed that the clean target was broken, so I fixed that too. knowledgejunkie: are you ok if I go ahead and NMU this and ask the release team for an unblock? (if I get no response i'll NMU in 5 days, but I'd really like to move sooner given how little time is available before release)
