Thinking out loud... Maybe is that the module you get from Debian 
repositories is placed in another path that your upstream Python version 
cannot locate or that simply you can't mix between different versions :-?

Mmm... python-3.3 is available (since a few days ago) for the

development version), so it has first to hit sid and then, testing.
