Bug Description

If any python-zope.app.* package is installed, I start to get lots of errors in the terminal when starting any python program:

This is because zope.interface installs a zope/__init__.py file, and this breaks the .pth files.

dh_python2 now has a namespace feature, that solves this problem UNLESS a package installs it's own namespace __init__.py file.

But the new dh_python2 in oneiric solves the problem of namespace __init__.py files, and we do not need this hack any more.

Changed in zope.interface (Ubuntu):

A combination of misleading error messages and claims lead me to look backwards at the problem.

I have reverted this and similar changes, and fixed this problem in the python-zope.app package.
