I had a confusing installation experience today.  Trac was installed in 
/usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/trac, and I checked out a version 
that I had hacked to use setuptools, and run "python setup.py develop" 
on.  This added my checkout to the path, but after site-packages, so it 
wouldn't be loaded, even if I did require('trac').  Now, if I did 
setup.py develop -m it would actually work, because setuptools would fix 
up the path correctly.

I don't know the best resolution here.  Maybe develop should check for 
conflicting installed packages?
