 On jaunty, I found I was unable to build any of the activities because
 sugar.activity couldn't be found.  I discovered that sugar/activity.py was
 installed in install/lib/python2.6/dist-packages but that wasn't in my
 path (enter shell, execute python, import sys, print sys.path).  Python
 2.6 changes the exec directory in
 /usr/lib/pkgconfig/python2.6/pygtk-2.0.pc to
 pyexecdir=${exec_prefix}/lib/python2.6/dist-packages
 but /usr/lib/pkgconfig/python2.5/pygtk-2.0.pc has
 pyexecdir=${exec_prefix}/lib/python2.5/site-packages

 This logic is hardcoded in sjhbuild/config.py.  Probably pkg-config should
 be used to set the appropriate directory in the path going forward.
