yup. however, perhaps the approach taken by wxPython would be worth
considering. Robin is putting the whole package in:
/usr/local/lib/wxPython-unicode-2.8.8.1/lib/python2.5/site-packages
Then putting a *.pth file in both /Library and /System pythons so that
it will work with either install of 2.5. It seems it would be easy to
add Enthought's too, though I have no idea where Enthought puts it.
Actually, perhaps we should try to establish a standard, putting
packages that work with multiple pythons in something like:
/usr/local/lib/UniversalPython2.5/site-packages
and add that to a *.pth file in various versions.
Note that Robin put:
import site;
site.addsitedir('/usr/local/lib/wxPython-unicode-2.8.8.1/lib/python2.5')
in the pth file, rather than just the path -- I have no idea why.
