I removed python-subvertpy-0.6.9 with "dpkg -r --force-depends python-subvertpy" and after this /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/subvertpy/__init__.py did not exist any more.

Aha, it was the *upgrade* that was the problem - I had done a fresh
installation.

Based on some testing using pbuilder chroots, the problem does not seem
to affect Ubuntu, but for some reason on Debian lenny when upgrading
from a version using python-central to a version using python-support,
the python-central symlinks and bytecode files are not removed.
