It's true that the original code is buggy, but I also don't think that
cdbs should remove *.egg-info. It's not safe to do it unconditionally;
there are known cases of packages breaking if you do that.
Please either:
- reassign the bugs back to python-recaptcha, pycha and nevow
- or change submitter to yourself.
