How do we add symlinks in this scenario ?
/usr/share/pyshared is implementation detail (changed recently) which you shouldn't know about (and use it since you shouldn't know it exists ;). Symlinking to /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/foo.py is not a good idea as well (although there will be no Python 2.8, I hope - if you use it, backporters will not be happy). I suggest to use `python -m foo` or write a wrapper that uses this command or Python script that imports foo and calls foo.main() (where main() is whatever is called after "if __name__ == '__main__':" in this file) -- Piotr Ożarowski Debian GNU/Linux Developer www.ozarowski.pl www.griffith.cc www.debian.org GPG Fingerprint: 1D2F A898 58DA AF62 1786 2DF7 AEF6 F1A2 A745 7645 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
