I have the niggling feeling that if anyone developing an itch there
would find scratching dosn't help. I think it's technical issues -
different versions of wxPython to what hugin uses and static vs.
dynamic linking, so in places it just won't work at all currently. We
had a longish discussion in

http://groups.google.com/group/hugin-ptx/browse_thread/thread/65462aa0557891a8#

T. Modes has a good overview of the difficulties involved (or, maybe
knows if they have disappeared with a new version) - my view is
somewhat insular.

There's no need to install them, since hugin's 'run Python script'
dialog is a plain file-select, so they can be wherever the user has
put them. This can be done so since they are not executed by the OS
but by the Python interpreter embedded in hugin - so they don't need
to be in the system path nor in PYTHON_PATH. But a standard location
might be nice since plugins can be written so that they function
standalone as well (as I have demonstarted with woa and crop_cp). A
location in the path may be favourable rather than a place like /usr/
lib/hugin/plugins, where you'd have to launch them explicitly.

The hsi and hpi modules are currently installed at defined locations
by cmake - on my machine, for example, they are put to /usr/local/lib/
python2.7/dist-packages; they have to be in PYTHON_PATH and I thought
this a good place..
