/usr/lib/site-python seems far more convenient than /usr/lib/pythonX/site-packages, don't know why it isn't the default Because it's wrong. Twisted has C extensions, and those are specific to the version of Python used to compile Twisted.

That python will try and import every time, and if you don't have the same python version installed it will recompile them every run.. and not be able to save them for permissions reason. -bob
