Hi,
since nobody seems to have any experience with brew in my last
commit to the gubbins packaging git[1] I tried to install the
included python files manually. Unfortunately for the python
module I installed to
/usr/share/pyshared/gubbins
the processing to /usr/lib/python3.4/gubbins does not work. Any
hint how to do this correctly (or is my attempt a bad idea in
general)?
(Any hints to my question below are welcome as well - I just
want to install the python files ...).
Thanks for any help
Andreas.
