Comment 3 for bug 60616

Hi,

I got exactly the same problem after upgrading from dapper to edgy including the duplicate installation as reported above (one version in /usr/share/python-support and the other one in /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages.

I did the same steps to troubleshoot but had to manually remove the folder "istanbul" in /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages in order to get it working.

Since I did a repository install of istanbul in dapper before (not a manual one as reported above), I think that the upgrade to edgy does not fully remove the old package. Probably worth checking...
