Bug#1014995: kea-shell does use original includes

[Kilian Krause]

Package: kea-ctrl-agent

After installation the kea-shell does not work because:
# kea-shell
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/sbin/kea-shell", line 27, in <module>
from kea_conn import CARequest # CAResponse
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'kea_conn'
#

Quite obviously with the current python3-kea-connector in Debian
the following patch does seem correct:

Hello Kilian and thanks for this bug report, which I can easily reproduce.

I don't think that's the right fix: what we want is this line (in your
patch context):

sys.path.append('/usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/kea')

to be:

sys.path.append('/usr/lib/python3/site-packages/kea')

which is there the Python files are actually installed. That's templated
upstream:

https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/kea/-/blob/585bd6b4a90287bc659adb414c8ae9cb806b23b1/src/bin/shell/kea-shell.in#L25

but the result is not correct in our case. I'll look into this.
