Suppose a distro packages our stuff and it gets installed on a system. Python executables go into /usr/bin/ and libraries go into /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ntp/
So far so good. Now what happens if a developer does a site install. (Is that the right term?) Libraries get installed in /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ntp/ and a .pth file gets setup to access them. The new libraries will get used by the system-installed executables. Should we be using "ntp-1.0" rather than "ntp"? --------- There is another possibility. We could patch the executables at install time to fixup sys.path to look where we install the libraries. -- These are my opinions.
