Another solution is versioned Egg file name (that is allowed), but in that case pkg_resources always detects only the older package (1.0.1) even if python-pysqlite2 is providing versioned Egg.
(I still recommend to remove Egg file from python-sqlite, see my previous patch) ** Attachment added: "versioned_egg" http://librarian.launchpad.net/6607388/versioned_egg.patch -- [apport] package python-sqlite failed to install/upgrade: https://launchpad.net/bugs/86552 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
