Installing gdata on Ubuntu 9.04.

Posted on May 27, 2010, 3:51 PM, by Mike Diehn, under personal.

Don’t forget that by default, most python module install themselves in /usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/. But the default install of python2.6 on Ubuntu 9.04 doesn’t look there. Ugh. So, instead of installing with

python setup.py install

use

python setup.py install –install-layout=deb

and the module will install itself in /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages and then python will be able to find it.
