Sorry,
but i can't understand what is your problem. Why you are installing
TurboGears using apt ??
Why you don't try installing it with easy_install ?
No other python module will be be overwritten and if you want you can
even remove the package easly.
In addition you can install TuboGears using virtual-python wich create
a python enviroment in your home directory.
For information on easy_install you can give a look at this page:

Bye.
