Comment 4 for bug 225927

I had tentatively targeted this to hardy due to the milestone, but on closer inspection it's evident that the problem here is that python-setuptools is installed, but has no .list file - so the dpkg database is in an inconsistent state at the time the python2.4-minimal removal is run. It may be beneficial to improve python-central's handling of this case in the long-term, but I don't think an SRU is warranted here since any change would be a workaround for a very uncommon bug.
