this did not work either..
Ithe found out, that

/usr/bin/lib/python2.7/site-packages

was empty.

after I did the following:

  ln -s /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/debian
  ln -s /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/char
  ln -s /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/chardet
  ln -s /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/six.py


I could do apt update && apt upgrade

but now I still have a messed up installation.
Especially my python is probably not correctly installed at all

any more ideas?
