I think we should package the api using distutils so the tux module will=
  =

be available as any other python module.

Regarding svn, you don't need to name a checked out folder the same as t=
he  =

repository. Here you should do a checkout of trunk in the  =

/opt/tuxdroid/api/python folder directly:
rm -rf /opt/tuxdroid/api/python/*
svn co http://svn.tuxisalive.com/api/python/trunk /opt/tuxdroid/api/pyth=
on
so you can update easily and don't need to change anything in the  =

applications.

(yes the svn has moved, I'll give you more information soon)
