[Python-modules-team] Bug#768954: python-cssutils: Empty package, upgrade fails during alternative updates

Package: python-cssutils
Version: 1.0-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Hi,

The package does not contain the Python modules nor the scripts. The
missing scripts make the install fails during update-alternative:

update-alternatives: erreur: le chemin alternatif /usr/bin/cssparse_py2 n'existe pas

A first problem is that in the switch to pybuild you quoted:

export PYBUILD_NAME="cssutils"

so pybuild will install everything in debian/python-"cssutils" and
those files wont be packaged. Note that python3-cssutils has the same
problem.

Also, you should take care of not packaging *_py2 scripts in the
Python 2 package (resp. *_py3 / Python 3) because even when correcting
PYBUILD_NAME, both Python 2 and 3 packages contain the same "binaries".

Regards,

Yannick
