Re: [orca-list] How do you run orca without installing it

[Andy Borka <sonfire11 gmail com>]

The best I know, you have to install it to make it work. It appears that 
orca is trying to import Python packages in a location relative to its 
install location. Since $home/* isn't the target install location, 
running it fails. The make install script should provide more details on 
how the install process sets up the environment.
