Please check again: [GCC 4.0.2 20050821 (prerelease) (Debian 4.0.1-6)] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import sys >>> sys.path ['', '/usr/lib/python23.zip', '/usr/lib/python2.3', '/usr/lib/python2.3/plat-linux2', '/usr/lib/python2.3/lib-tk', '/usr/lib/python2.3/lib-dynload', '/usr/local/lib/python2.3/site-packages', '/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages', '/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/Numeric', '/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/gtk-2.0', '/usr/lib/site-python'] We still have the empty string in sys.path, and it still denotes the current directory.
