Hi,

There is a tiny little inconsistency when installing under Ubuntu (or Debian) with easy_install without options:
{{{
$ sudo easy_install robotframework
...
Installation directory: /*usr/lib*/python2.6/dist-packages/robotframework-2.1.2-py2.6.egg/robot
...
Installed /*usr/local/lib*/python2.6/dist-packages/robotframework-2.1.2-py2.6.egg
}}}

Then:
{{{
$ pybot
/usr/bin/python: can't open file '/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/robotframework-2.1.2-py2.6.egg/robot/runner.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory
}}}

A workaround consists in installing RF in /usr/lib, but this requires two options:
{{{
$ sudo easy_install robotframework --install-layout deb --force-installation-into-system-dir
}}}

Unfortunately, that "taints" /usr/lib with non Debian-packaged files (would be OK in /usr/local/lib.)
