Oh. Just looking at my setup (Ubunutu 11.10) and I see that /usr/lib/python2.7
doesn't have a site-packages directory. However, /usr/local/lib/python2.7 has
both dist-packages and site-packages.
So, my stuff should probably go into /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages?
Interesting (?) that these are empty dirs right now?
Also, if I look at my sys.path value I see that
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages is in the path; but site-packages is not.

Yes. Understand that part. And then I can just call 'foobar()'. What I was
wondering is if there was a way to set something in __init__.py to shorten the
calls. So, if I have:
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/myprogram
mymods
__init__.py
mod1.py
mod2.py
mylibs
__init__.py
Is there some magic I can put into myprogram/__init__.py which forces modules
to be imported from mymods instead of myprogram/mymods?
Thanks.
