[Bruce sleeps on it]
I'll file against dcoppython for the following reasons:
- PyQt has an established history of installing to site-packages as
qt.py, I was building and installing it long before dcoppython was
even a twinkle in a developer's eye (back in the KDE1 days).
- dcoppython should be in site-packages with all the rest of the
addons, not mixed in with all the Python modules.
- I don't think dcoppython works anyways.
