Hi Dag,

I have a number of thoughts on how you could tackle this, and would be happy
to provide a patch.

1) Just try looking for squiclient in /usr/bin and /usr/sbin
2) Use platform.dist() (or platform.linux_distribution()) to choose the
appropriate location of squidclient. In this vein, how tied to a specific
version of Python are you?

regards

Andrew
