That's what I was referring to. A mysql.py or a mysql/__init__.py in ".".

$ python -c 'import mysql as a ; print a.__file__'
/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/mysql/__init__.pyc

..and that file is from a package I just sponsored in NEW (which provides the 
mysql.utilities module).

I guess we just found a bug with the coexistence of dh_python2 and pysupport
packages?

Thanks for your help,
David
