I've got a big problem with packing my quickly application for the Ubuntu App Showdown.
When I try to package or submit my application, I get some warnings:



quickly package --verbose
........
----------------------------------
WARNING: syntax errors in facebook/FacebookWindow.py: encoding declaration in
Unicode string (FacebookWindow.py, line 0)
WARNING: the following files are not recognized by DistUtilsExtra.auto:
AUTHORS~
facebook/AboutFacebookDialog.py~
facebook/FacebookWindow.py~
facebook/PreferencesFacebookDialog.py~
facebook/__init__.py~
facebook_lib/AboutDialog.py~
facebook_lib/Builder.py~
facebook_lib/PreferencesDialog.py~
facebook_lib/Window.py~
facebook_lib/__init__.py~
facebook_lib/facebookconfig.py~
facebook_lib/helpers.py~
setup.py~
----------------------------------
An error has occurred when creating debian packaging
ERROR: can't create or update ubuntu package
ERROR: package command failed
Aborting


What does the second warning mean? How do I solve those warnings? I want to submit my app to the Ubuntu App developer Showdown into my PPA and it doesn't work.



Thanks for any answer.

You are probably using a version of the python-distutils-extra package from the precise-proposed pocket in the archive, that is newer than the stable release and that it is known to cause trouble with the latest Quickly version.



Try to downgrade it by running the following command, and then re-run the Quickly packaging command:



sudo apt-get install python-distutils-extra=2.32-2
