This file has been deprecated for about 10 years if I'm correct. It was
used in old versions of dh_python and dh_pysupport.
I will double-check the code of dh_python when I'm back at a computer but
it was already asked to remove it when we migrated to dh_python2 in 2015,
see: https://wiki.debian.org/Python/TransitionToDHPython2
