Build Error in maverick: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/50119957/buildlog_ubuntu-maverick-i386.creoleparser_0.7.2-3_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz

The problem is that lib build directory in python is lib.<plat> where plat is given by distutils.util.get_platform(). However, in debian/rules it is hardcoded that the directory should be just lib:

PYTHONPATH=$(CURDIR)/build/lib $$py $(CURDIR)/build/lib/creoleparser/__init__.py;

one way to fix this is forcing distutils to use lib directory in debian/rules:

$$py setup.py build --build-lib=build/lib;
