this is the same as my installed sync-engine. If I put this line of
code after each of those lines:
print "self.sepath = %s" % self.sepath
Then the output is:
self.sepath = /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/SyncEngine/xml2util.py
self.sepath = /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/SyncEngine
self.sepath = /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages

one level below? Could you perhaps show me the output from your
sync-engine with the one-liner I added above?
