The patch you're pointing to is no longer needed. As Arnout said,
python-smbus is installed by the i2c-tools package, but the source code
of python-smbus is in i2c-tools.

The issue with the patch you're pointing to is that it was sharing
variables between python-smbus.mk and i2c-tools.mk, which is not
correct (relies on the assumption that i2c-tools.mk gets included
before python-smbus.mk, which is true because alphabetically they are
ordered properly, but the same strategy wouldn't work in the opposite
way).

Best regards,

Thomas
