Is there any known "standard" directory location for complete applications written in Python? I think a typical internationalized application contains at least four different file types: 1. an executable (Python-)script 2. one or more (Python-)modules (specific for this application) 3. one or more subdirectories containing xxx.mo files for gettext 4. a xxx.rc file for gtk-styles Splitting this up in /usr/local/bin, /usr/python/site-packages and /usr/local/share makes it hard to de-install the application. Furthermore I think that application-specific modules should not go to site-packages, since this is the place for global packages/modules and not for modules that are only meaningfull in the context of one application. Therefore I decided to have one /usr/local/python/xxx directory for each of my applications and install all files there (besides the scripts). But this solution implies to have these directories in the $PYTHONPATH and makes the distribution not portable to other OS. Are there any intentions to improve the support of applications in distutils? Asks Gernot
