Most of the time, there’s a “search path” typically associated with an environment variable that we need to set accordingly (like PYTHONPATH, GUILE_LOAD_PATH, etc.). Sometimes, that mechanism doesn’t exist upstream so we end up patching the software to add it. This is what was done with OBS for instance, and that patch is now upstream. HTH! Ludo’.
