Hello,

Oh, that is probably a change that I accidentally committed.

On Debian, the Python modules are residing in a different place (god knows why) and to test things on my development machine, I occasionally change the path.

I fixed it here, and you can just grab the patch:

Ah, I see. Incorporated the patch, and running development. If successful,
I'll submit an update patch for libloc in IPFire 2.x to the development
mailing list in due course.

All the best,
