Public bug reported: The zope.interface package is manually copying __init__.py from sources to the "zope" directory. This should NOT be done when a nspkg.pth is installed for the package, as it is correctly done.
Although this does not seem to provoke issues at a first glance, it's what provokes two hard-to-track issues with zc.buildout: https://bugs.launchpad.net/zc.buildout/+bug/685638 https://bugs.launchpad.net/zc.buildout/+bug/659231 if you check other zope.* packages in debian/ubuntu, you'll see none of them manually copy __init__.py .
