Here is how to install the official stable 3.3.x python driver for firebird ,
the one 3.2.x from ubuntu repository is quite old an buggy

tar -jxvf kinterbasdb-3.3.0.tar.bz2
cd kinterbasdb-3.3.0/
sudo apt-get install python-dev firebird2.5-dev
sudo python setup.py install
python -c "import kinterbasdb as k; print k.__version__"
