(The following was submitted by Norvell Spearman some
time ago.)

On my Linux box, running python-2.2.2b1 and pub1.0a1, I
had to supply a
pub.pth file for Python to see PUB's modules, after running

python setup.py install

as root in the directory where I unpacked the pub
distribution.

/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/pub.pth

its contents:

# pub package configuration
pub

    Lalo Martins packages Python as a python package awhile
    back. I don't think that a normal python package needs the
    pub.pth, but then I'm not sure what it's needed for. I know
    Python Imaging Library has one. Presumeably we need to fix
    the installer to take care of this detail if it is being
    handled.

    Has anyone else had any experience with this? Would be nice
    to know the deal with it. I've never had the problem.
