But not a good one. Modules are *support*, not directly
executable. Using a symlink from ${prefix}/bin/<name> to the script
${prefix}/lib/<application>/<script.py> allows Python to generate the
right sys.path so that modules and application-specific packages
placed in ${prefix}/lib/<application>/ are properly found.
If an application uses other directories of
${prefix}/lib/<application>/ to store data files, all modules and
scripts should probably be pushed to a subdirectory instead.
