Lintian tag: package-installs-python-pycache-dir

Type: error

Description (from lintian-explain-tags)

The package installs a __pycache__ directory, which is normally only used
to store compiled Python source files. Compiled Python source files must
not be included in the package, instead they should be generated at
installation time in the postinst.

Note this tag is issues even if the directory is empty.

Please refer to Documentation (Section 3.7) in the Debian Python Policy
0.12.0.0 documentation for details.
