I just realized something. If I change the name of my package to python-sidl, that won't change the EGG-INFO, right? It seems we have an inherent conflict, which will make it difficult to install both packages simultaneously. :-( For now and the lenny release, it seems we need to make the packages conflict. Beyond that... time to get upstream involved? I will write to my babel people. In the meantime, I elevated the severity of my bug, and retitled it. -Adam -- GPG fingerprint: D54D 1AEE B11C CE9B A02B C5DD 526F 01E8 564E E4B6 Engineering consulting with open source tools http://www.opennovation.com/
