Hi,

I tried to reproduce this, but couldn't. Can you try (without the folder
that you created as a workaround) this command in the shell:

    python2.6 -c 'import pytz; print pytz.__file__'

To try reproduce this, I installed python-tz on a brand new minimally
installed machine. It worked as expected from the python2.6 command
line:

    # python2.6
    Python 2.6.5+ (release26-maint, May 30 2010, 13:37:47) 
    [GCC 4.4.4] on linux2
    Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
    >>> import pytz
    >>> print pytz.__file__
    /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/pytz/__init__.pyc
    >>>
