However, I think you are mistaken. The only thing python2.3-sqlite does in its postinstall script is to run /usr/lib/python2.3/compileall.py on each directory found in /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages. It also does not use or install any Python egg or formencode module. The only conclusion I can draw is that the egg comes from some other package or module that you have installed by other means.
