Hi René,
You are correct. I add python-apt as a recommend dependency package and
upload the package again for Ubuntu and Debian. I didn't notice the
problem because I have other packages in my test machine which depend on
python-apt. Thanks.
No problem.
Btw, are you (or anyone else) working on getting the guest agent into
official Debian/Ubuntu repositories?
Your packages are working really well, so it should be not to hard to
get them into official repos...
