I want to override the report_download method in the addons/report/controllers/main.py file. but I do not know how to inherit the ReportController(Controller) class. I understand that inheriting a controller is not the same as the other classes. Can anyone please help me out?

I would suggest to do this:
from openerp import http
from openerp.http import request
import openerp.addons.report.controllers.main as main
class Extension(main.ReportController):
@route(['/report/download'], type='http', auth="user")
def report_download(self, data, token):
do_what_you_need_to_do()
return super(Extension, self).report_download(data, token)
Yup, this would be a cleaner way to do it. Thanks Gael.
Ok got it.
from openerp.addons import report
class ReportControllerDerived(report.controllers.main.ReportController):
@route(['/report/download'], type='http', auth="user")
def report_download(self, data, token):
///remaining code
I had not referenced the base class correctly earlier
