Is this different to all these python modules that include the working directory? When I had a quick look it smelled like these once, in which case none of the packages probably deserves a DSA and they can all be fixed through s-p-u/o-s-p-u (and can be urgency 'slow'), but I thought I'd ask first in case I misunderstood the issue.
