[Zope-dev] Zope and python namespaces

[Roch'e Compaan]

I wrote an external method that uses Graphite, Sping and PIL to
generate charts, but I ran into some namespace problems.  Execution
of the external method fails because there is a clash in the namespace
between PIL and Zope.  PIL has a module "ImageFile" and Zope does as
well.  Even	if I insert PIL's path explicitly as the first entry in
the path, Zope's ImageFile is still being used.

How can I resolve this and what is the best strategy to avoid namespace
problems here?
