I just tried to install a package with dpkg -i

I have python 2.4.2 installed and the dependencies require python 2.4.

can't seem to find this package in ubuntu packages.

That must be an bug in the deb-file: Any Python 2.4.x is just a bugfix version of Python 2.4, so the functionality is the same(sans bugs).

What package are you trying to install?

Finally, maybe you could write to the guy who wrote the deb-file and tell him about the problem. It shouldn't be difficult to fix and is probably just an oversight on his part.
