Description David Grant 2006-07-31 13:13:17 UTC

blogtk should install to /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages, should it not?

Uhm, anything not working or what's the issue here?

Comment 2 David Grant 2006-07-31 13:27:58 UTC

blogtk should install to /usr/lib/${PYVER}/site-packages, not /usr/lib/blogtk. It's because the ebuild writer used make install. I can improve this script.

Comment 3 David Grant 2006-07-31 13:34:59 UTC

Actually I just looked at the Makefile and it's a mess. I wouldn't bother changing it.

Yeah, that's why I asked whether it actually breaks anything. If not, better not touch it. :=)

Yeah, sometimes going against the FHS can be a good thing. Less pain
