With system packaged the __init__.py is guaranteed to not even be
installed. Try this:
$ python setup.py install --single-version-externally-managed --root xxx
Also, if there are files alongside the __init__.py, they can cause
filesystem conflicts in system packagers. dpkg will refuse to install a
package if it would overwrite a file owned by another package.
