 Thank you Ng, I think we've found the problem.

$ dpkg -l swig\*

 ... still no joy.

_m2crypto_wrap.c: In function `ssl_verify_callback':
_m2crypto_wrap.c:867: too few arguments to function
`SWIG_NewPointerObj'
_m2crypto_wrap.c:868: too few arguments to function
`SWIG_NewPointerObj'
_m2crypto_wrap.c: In function `ssl_info_callback':

make: *** [_m2crypto] Error 1

 ... so I guess and it's still too closely coupled to the 
 swig version so 1.3.10u is too new and 1.1 is (understandably)
 too old.

 Ng, are you planning on updating this to Python2.2 using the 
 latest swig?  Could we find an (international) volunteer to 
 maintain a Debian package?
