I'll wait to see what other who use Ubuntu say regarding the dabo.pth
file. In the absence of any feedback there are old notes on the wiki
about ubuntu installs.
I'll give it a go a bit latter and get back tomorrow if I have any problems.
I take it all the other requirements (python, wxpython) are OK?
With your comments and Paul's code snippet, I should be able to cobble
something together. I will get back with something soon and see what
people think.
