Hi,
Here is a small patch for idl2eth.
- idl2eth should look in $PYTHONPATH/site-packages/
for installed "ethereal_be.py" and "ethereal_gen.py"
- If that fails, then look in current directory.
This is to prepare for ethereal_*.py to be installed
in $PYTHONPATH/site-packages during a "make install".
Cheers / Frank.
