The error got through both dh_auto_install and pybuild --install.  I'm 
pretty sure dh_auto_install will halt on error (or more correctly 
debian/rules will halt when dh_auto_install returns an error).  I would 
have thought pybuild would also catch the error and pass it on to 
dh_auto_install.  Could it be that upstream setup.py returns 0 when the 
SyntaxError happens or something similar, i.e. ignores the error? The 
problem must be either there or in pybuild.
