Thanks for the bug report! 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.

        Regards,
        Joel
