image-file-in-usr-lib
Hi, some of the package I maintain (namely python-astropy), or want to package, contain images within their python source directories. When installed using the normal setup, these images get installed in /usr/lib, leading to the lintian warning shown in the subject. Is there a simple way to avoid this?

The code is probably expecting the files to be in that location. It will need to be patched to expect the files in a more appropriate location. Installing the non-program files to ‘/usr/share/foopackage/images/’ (for example) is simple enough, using ‘dh_install’. -- \ “Alternative explanations are always welcome in science, if | `\ they are better and explain more.

The non-program files are in the right location, the program can continue to be ignorant of the filesystem layout, and you didn't have to patch any code. -- \ “I turned to speak to God/About the world's despair; But to | `\ make bad matters worse/I found God wasn't there.” —Robert Frost | _o__) | Ben Finney -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-python-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

It would be nice if somebody with a distro point of view could look at these discussions and engage.
