Only for plugins that aren't relocatable. This can be worked around in the ./configure, but a better solution is to avoid such mechanisms. > I suppose it would be enough to 1) document the problem in the > python-support documentation 2) recommend people to ./configure with a > python path of /var/lib/python-support/pythonX.Y 3) stop moving files > from /usr/lib/pythonX.Y into /var/lib/python-support. 3) is obviously > for the long term. The real long term solution is to have python look for byte-compiled files directly in /var/cache/python/$hash, just like fontconfig does. Having done things right from the beginning would have saved a lot of trouble. -- Josselin Mouette /\./\ "Do you have any more insane proposals for me?"
