pub.pth file still needed for install?

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.
