Subject: Leaves empty /usr/lib in package

Package: python-central
Version: 0.5.15
Severity: normal
File: /usr/bin/dh_pycentral

Hi

when using dh_pycentral for pure python package, it moves everything
from /usr/lib/python*/site-packages to /usr/share/pycentral. However it
keeps there empty /usr/lib directory which is then included in package.
I think this empty directory should be removed by dh_pycentral.

CC to devel as the issue has been opened there.

Description: 
 python-central - register and build utility for Python packages
Closes: 378146 394084 397495 398729 405781 432813 450491 452227 467372
Changes: 
 python-central (0.6.0) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   [ Summary of the changes for versions 0.5.50 up to 0.5.63 as done in Ubuntu]
   * Install modules into a package and tool independent directory
     /usr/share/pyshared (without the site-packages prefix), as proposed in
     http://lists.debian.org/debian-python/2006/06/msg00184.html.
     Let dpkg handle conflicts and replaces again.
     Packages should build-depend on python-central (>= 0.6) to ensure the new
     file layout.
   * Place metadata about the package in /usr/share/pyshared-data/<package>,
     (readable by ConfigParser). Avoids direct access to files in
     /var/lib/dpkg/info and avoids calls to dpkg-query.
   * Keep public modules available during upgrades.
     - dh_pycentral: Call `pycentral pkgprepare' in the preinst (overridden
       with DH_PYCENTRAL matching `noprepare'.
     - pycentral pkgprepare: Implement.
     - Duplicate the metadata in the preinst file.
   * On upgrade, properly remove byte-code files not anymore in the
     new version of the package.
   * pkgprepare, pkginstall: Always use the default runtime as a last resort.
   * Handle updates gracefully, if the old package version has shared
     files already located in /usr/share/pyshared, and the new package has
     them still in the old location in /usr/share/pycentral. LP: #197841.
   * dh_pycentral: Remove an empty /usr/lib after moving all files.
     Closes: #452227.
   * Users tend to modify the /usr/bin/python symlink. Allow pythonX.Y
     and /usr/bin/pythonX.Y as values. Closes: #378146, #450491, #467372.
   * pycentral updatedefault: Fix name in error message. Closes: #432813.
   * pyversions.py: Assume no old and unsupported versions, when
     the python_defaults file is not yet installed. Closes: #405781.
   * dh_pycentral: Set file permissions independently of the umask.
     Closes: #398729.
   * Use a default value for supported python versions, if python-minimal
     is not installed, and apt-cache is not available. Closes: #394084, #397495.
   * Do not crash if no /usr/share/python/debian_defaults is on the
     system and assume python2.4 then. That was the last version
     without this file (LP: #198456).
 .
   * Thanks to Michael Vogt for extensive upgrade testing, suggestions
     and bug fixes.
