[Bug 1075632] Re: package python-xapian 1.2.8-1 failed to install/upgrade: ErrorMessage: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 101

It looks to me like there's a common issue with upgrading python
packages in some situations - google finds ~230 bugs in launchpad in
with the same error message, and the sample I looked at seemed to be in
packages which only seemed to be related by being in python:
