This is silly. How do I access data files I've installed with distutils? In a 
portable, generic way, I want to find out what is the following path on most 
systems:

/usr/local/lib/python2.4/lib/site-packages/foo/bar.txt

How do I figure out the rest, if I know foo/bar.txt? sys.prefix doesn't get me 
far.

I've googled, and looked in the python reference. I must be blind if the 
distutils section[1] covers this.


Cheers,

                Frans
