When launching QGIS 1.8.0 on Debian testing with latest updates an error appears:

Couldn't load PyQGIS.
Python support will be disabled.


Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "", line 1, in 
RuntimeError: the sip module implements API v9.0 to v9.2 but the qgis.core module requires API v8.1

QGIS is useless without Python.
