Well it was my fault again. Linux can run very long before you need to
restart it. I work with screen. Before PYTHONPATH was
.:/home/cecil/Python, but later on I changed it to
.:/home/cecil/Python/PythonLibrary. When starting a new shell, the
bash shell had the right value. But when starting ipython it got the
old value. Importing os is not even necessary:
Python 3.4.1 (default, May 23 2014, 17:48:28) [GCC]
Type "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

Feeling a bit silly at the moment. >:-(
By the way I use python2 because the program uses a library that does
not work with python3.
