Re: [chirp_devel] [PATCH] Try harder to find resources. #4487

...

• def find_resource(self, filename):

•    """Searches for files installed to a share/ prefix."""
  

•    execpath = self.executable_path()
  

•    share_candidates = [
  

•        os.path.join(execpath, "share"),
  

•        os.path.join(sys.prefix, "share"),
  

•        "/usr/local/share",
  

•        "/usr/share",
  

•    ]
  

I'd have to go check, but I think that some of the stuff ends up flattened in the windows build (for better or worse).

Any reason you can't just leave execpath in the list so we don't need to argue? (i.e. compatibility with what is there now just in case).

I snipped too early:

•    pkgshare_candidates = [os.path.join(i, "chirp") for i in share_candidates]
  

•    search_paths = [execpath] + pkgshare_candidates + share_candidates
  

execpath is in there ^.

So, uh, nevermind, applied. Thanks!
