I should have written "symlinking from" and not "symlinking to".
If you install the modules in /usr/share/<appname>/ and the script too, and
then create a symlink in /usr/{s,}bin pointing to your script, python will
automatically find the modules. That's the way I do it in my packages, e.g.
gnome-app-install.
