I'm not convinced it's actually bad form. Can you elaborate on why you see this as hideous? There is a reason that build systems from autoconf to waf support embedding paths, in the style of @PREFIX@ or @SYSCONFDIR@: it is the best solution for certain problems. I don't think that embedding the path to look for *this project's* module is any worse than an application embedding search paths for its own plugins, images, sounds, etc. Python's default sys.path is itself built from the embedded copy of Python's prefix. -- Richard _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@ntpsec.org http://lists.ntpsec.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
