Chris -

Have you tried

>>> import mypackage.mymodule

from an interactive Python session?

Also, regarding PythonPath - if you read documentation carefully, you'll
notice that it says that no other directives have any effect at the time
PythonImport is executed.

Generally, you should not use PythonImport unless you *really* need it,
which is almost never the case.
