Code review comment for lp:~barry/ubuntu/lucid/distribute/sync-to-sid

I'm not 100% positive I understand what the .substvars files are for, where they're used, or why this rules file is writing them. However, it seems clear that we only want to support Python 2.6. Here is the updated changelog (branch update pushed in r11.

distribute (0.6.10-1ubuntu1) lucid; urgency=low

  * Merge from Debian Unstable. Remaining Ubuntu changes:
    - Build only for Python 2.6, since 2.5 and earlier is not supported on
      Lucid.
    - Remove old setuptools.egg-info directories so that we can transition
      to symlinks.
    - When writing the debian/python-setuptools.substvars, only include
      variable substitutions for building Python 2.6.
