[Bug 337696] Re: package python-wxgtk2.6 2.6.3.2.2-3ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite `/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/wxPython/__init__.py', which is also in package python-wxgtk2.8

I believe I have correctly fixed the duplication issue. However I am not
an expert packager, so I am not sure exactly how the side-by-side
installation (wx2.6 and wx2.8) should work, so the control files may
need modification.  Also, do the wx2.x-i18n packages really conflict?
Should python-wxaddons be renamed to python-wxaddons2.8 ?

Fix Method:
  setup.py was patched to include the extra_directory in all setup calls
  debian/rules changed to be compatible with new locations, better python-wxaddons handling
  debian/rules added linking to .egg-info files from wx2.x-gtk2-unicode dirs

I currently have wx2.6 and 2.8 side by side (except i18n), and I can run
spe  with the built-in python shell (my reason to patch)

Attached is the diff.gz for wx2.8, wx2.6 will follow
