I don't really  see the relation between the new  behavior of twisted of
not searching plugins in directories containing __init__.py and the fact
that multiple modules providing plugins may break things.

Moreover,  your   proposed  fix  will  just  break   more  things  since
python-support will add __init__.py file into the target directory.

I could fix this bug easily in python-nevow by removing this __init__.py
file  in  postinst.  However,  Sam   seems  to  report  a  more  general
problem. Fixing it in python-nevow won't solve it.

If we  don't fix it  in twisted, we  could fix it in  python-support.  I
don't really  understand why python-support adds  __init__.py files. The
code says  that otherwise, python will  not take care  of package inside
those directories. I  don't find a case where a package  is shipped as a
package without __init__.py.

Josselin,   any  hint   on  this   problem?   I  assign   this  bug   to
python-support.  If  you  don't  agree,  feel free  to  reassign  it  to
python-nevow, I know how to fix it for python-nevow.

Thanks.
