In Ubuntu we don't have binNMUs. We need to do source uploads for rebuilds.

The way I understood
http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-python@lists.debian.org/msg06566.html
was that the idea was to move away from dh_pysupport in favour of
dh_python2.

As pyopenssl needed a rebuild in Ubuntu in order to give us OpenSSL for
2.7 (I needed it for a papyon build), I thought I'd make the change in
the same upload and forward the changes to you.

"we" as in the default piece of text that "submittodebian" provides.

I'm not sure you intended it this way, but your answer comes across as
quite a bit agitated. Please take my word for it that I only had the
best intentions.

As I said: to me it looked like a straight-forward thing to get things
in the Ubuntu archive into a build-able state again. I'm sorry if I
misunderstood things. (I still don't understand what exactly what about
my change was wrong.)

Have a great day,
 Daniel
