Description Dirkjan Ochtman 2011-05-06 01:27:16 UTC
0.5.4 installs the tests in site-packages/tests. This is obviously not a good idea: at the very least, prone to collisions with some other packages. It seems to happen because the package finding code in setup.py correctly finds the tests package and then installs it.

I think there are two viable options of resolving this:

    don't install the tests
    move the tests into the papyon package

I'd be happy to contribute a patch, but I don't think that would be the sticky point here.

iirc they've been removed in 0.5.5, please try that version
