[Bug 938786] Re: Import issue with namespace packages in pkg_resources

[Cas]

The process clearly is not working when distribute has a patch applied
in the first instance which turns out was bad and then the fix to
correct that patch requires verification but 9 months later seemingly
no-one other than myself can do that.

I also was honest about being unable to test on Oneiric however the diff
and the fix I pointed to originally are identical (4 lines of python
with an indentation issue) so I feel I should have just helped the
process along and said it worked fine.
