Hi, There are some packages that include python modules/packages that are not installable via setup.py. Since they might not end up on the normal python search path, python fails to find them and the build looks 'broken' For example, paraview (a package within the science project) installs its shared libraries into its own /usr/lib64/paraview subdirectory. The associated python3 packages get placed into /usr/lib64/paraview/python3.x/site-packages/. Another project I recently submitted places its python modules into /usr/share/<package>/Python. Both of these cases end up with import errors, and can be solved by fixing how the packages are installed. Rather than moving the packages into the system site-packages directory, I propose to simply throw a <package>.pth file into the site directory for python 2 or 3 (or both if applicable) pointing to the packages python modules. Is there precedent regarding this issue? Regards, Chris -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org
