- the last paths have been added by GdalTools (and fTools). I think<br>
this generally is a bad idea and it should be avoided completely. If<br>
there are any files in distinct plugins with the same file names, they<br>
will interfere each other, leading to python errors happening only<br>
under a specific set of loaded plugins. Second, I believe the python<br>
plugins within QGIS source code are used as examples by other plugin<br>
developers, so such practice of altering sys.path to include plugin<br>
subdirs may lead to even more plugins exploiting that.<font color="#888888"><br></font></blockquote><div>I agree with you. I'm removing that paths. <br><br>Cheers.<br></div></div><br>-- <br>Giuseppe Sucameli<br>
