Recently I had trouble with the sqlite package under my debian etch box as follows:
I first installed the debian package python-pysqlite1.1 using synaptic. Since this seemed too old for other packages (sqlalchemy) I downloaded the sources pysqlite-2.3.4.tar.gz and ran setup install. This gave the problem that _sqlite was not found. And now the apt system started complaining that it could not uninstall it because of some new files. I finally (seem to have :-) ) got it to work by going into /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ and deleting the pysqlite directory and reinstalling using apt. However this is an unsatisfactory solution because I do not know what else I should delete So now my question: How does one uninstall *cleanly* 1> a package installed using setup.py install 2> a package installed with easy_install Thanks -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
