Comment #7 on issue 236 by [email protected]: Runner scripts are not updated correctly when using Easy Install with virtualenv on Mac OSX
http://code.google.com/p/robotframework/issues/detail?id=236

Hi,

I don't know yet if this case enters in the scope of the present issue or if I should
file another bug report.

There is a tiny little inconsistency when installing RF on an Ubuntu (or Debian)
GNU/Linux 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

(similar to the "can't open file
'/Library/Python/2.5/site-packages/robotframework-2.0.4-py2.5.egg/robot/runner.py':
[Errno 2] No such file or directory" reported above)

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.)
