>             Project: Thrift
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Python - Library
>    Affects Versions: 0.9
>         Environment: *nix

> There's a namespace collision in 
> 1. Thrift Python bindings ( https://github.com/apache/thrift/blob/0.9.x/lib/py/setup.py )
> 2. FB303 Python bindings ( https://github.com/apache/thrift/blob/0.9.x/contrib/fb303/py/setup.py )
> both claim the package name "thrift", leading one to overwrite the other ( at least when the default egg behavior is enabled ) when you try to install both.
> The ways to fix it are:
> 1. simple - change the 'name' in the fb303 `setup.py` to 'fb303' or 'thrift_fb303'
> 2. complex - have both use a Namespace Package ( http://pythonhosted.org/distribute/setuptools.html#namespace-packages ) 
> i just used the simple fix locally.  it works fine.
> i'm not sure if the fb303 is actually used by anything anymore.  the way the repo is currently set though, it's not easy to install both packages.
