[wxPython-users] sys.path adjusted?

[Jorgen Bodde]

Hi Robin and Christopher,

You are both right. I come from a Windows background, but like to know
more about Linux development and realized that the way the
applications are distributed is very different from windows (more
organized I must say). As the application is usually stored in a
/usr/bin directory, and the application data in /usr/share/ there is
no real need anymore to use sys.path. I guess I was holding on to my
old ways of distributing my applications too much ;-)

I have a practical question though, for all Linux die hards that
deploy wxpython apps:

Where does my app go? I saw a tutorial that one should use
/usr/share/{category}/{appname} to store the data of the application.

The binary part (or python part) should go to /usr/bin ? But what if
my app is multiple files big, should I make a subdir called
/usr/bin/app and create a shortcut in /usr/bin ?

Sorry about a bit OT questions, I am kind of new to the Linux way of
deploying my app

Thanks,
- Jorgen
