Comment 0 for bug 1077999

Someone asked me to modify keepnote . I unpacked the gz file, changed directory to the top level keepnote directory created by tar, then checked to see if keepnote is installed on my system with the command
keepnote
keepnote happens to be written in python2 and there are a bunch of python files in the directory I described. keepnote is not installed on my system. command-not-found imported a file from the local directory and failed. command-not-found clearly won't work with every python2 file, and shouldn't load files from the local directory anyway. I suppose this problem might be pervasive.

$ keepnote
