Package: python-boto
Version: 0.9a-1
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 10.1
python-boto installs its unit tests, complete with an __init__.py, to
/usr/share/python-support/python-boto/tests and (implicitly) asks
python-support to compile them; not only does this waste (a small
amount) of resources, it leads to effective conflicts with similarly
broken packages such as python-pylons at present:

Trying to overwrite tests/__init__.py which is already provided by

Could you please either leave the tests off altogether or ship them as
documentation rather than passing them off as library modules?
Thanks!
