Just un-installed and re-installed the 20040925-2 snapshot.  Problem 
still shows up.

I see the same problem when launched from a KDE menu item with "eric3" 
as the command (and ~/pylive as the work path) and when typing in 
"eric3" at the bash prompt.  Executable is at /usr/local/bin/eric3 ,  
total content of the file eric3 is:

#!/bin/sh

exec /usr/bin/python /home/mcfletch/pylive/eric3/eric3.py $*


I'd suggest using the __file__ attribute of the eric3 package (or the 
main eric3 module, for that matter) as the base for this kind of thing 
if you're not going to use the eric3config.py.  There's also been 
discussion (and IIRC a fairly robust recipe was posted) of how to get 
the module path on comp.lang.python recently.

Off to grandmother's house I go,
Mike
