[Python-modules-team] Bug#524303: me too

I get it as well.

Setting up python-elementtree (1.2.6-13) ...
Usage: update-python-modules [-v] [-c] package_directory [...]
       update-python-modules [-v] [-c] package.dirs [...]
       update-python-modules [-v] [-a|-f|-p]

update-python-modules: error:

Also, the postinst has an extra space ...

set -e

if which update-python-modules >/dev/null 2>&1; then
        update-python-modules  python-elementtree.public

# End automatically added section

/usr/share/python-support/python-elementtree.public is indeed provided
by the package as a file.

A similar problem occurs on package removal ...
