[Pythonmac-SIG] 'normal' python library installations on OSX

Hello all,
I'm looking to install libraries in the OSX python framework  
structure using a simple shell script and I can't find a document  
which advises the 'normal' locations.

given packAGE.py, (and various other .py files which it imports)
_ packAGE.so and
libpackAGE.dylib
I've made a packAGE directory in
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/Current/lib/python  
version/site-packages/packAGE
within which I emplace packAGE.py, (and various other .py files which  
it imports) and _ packAGE.so
I also place there an a __init__.py  file in which I import packAGE.py

but where is the 'proper' place to put  libpackAGE.dylib?  /usr/local/ 
lib ??

a short answer or reference to where I can find this info would be  
much appreciated.

David
