Roman Shaposhnik commented on BIGTOP-688:
-----------------------------------------
An additional complication is that even on systems with the default python if I
don't do the PATH setting the actual executable that is used remains to be the
system python, which clearly defeats the purpose of the relocatable virtual
environment to begin with (the 3 PIDs are from the top level supervisor down to
the rpc server):
{noformat}
// remove the path setting
# service hue start
# ls -l /proc/19736/exe
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Aug 17 12:14 /proc/19736/exe -> /usr/bin/python2.4
# ls -l /proc/19740/exe
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Aug 17 12:14 /proc/19740/exe -> /usr/bin/python2.4
# ls -l /proc/19772/exe
lrwxrwxrwx 1 hue hue 0 Aug 17 12:14 /proc/19772/exe -> /usr/bin/python2.4

> Currently Hue packaging does unfortunate things with permissions and
> mutability of things under /usr/lib/hue. We should make sure our virtual env
> is relocatable and can be used in a R/O fashion and we should move mutable
> bits (desktop.db and app.reg) under /var/lib/hue.
