Details

Description:
Python imports broken for all smbios-* commands in /usr/bin

After changing these two lines in each smbios-* command, things are fixed:

old:
pythondir=os.path.join(os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(sys.argv[0])), "..", "python")
clidir=os.path.join(os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(sys.argv[0])), "..", "py-cli")

new:
pythondir=os.path.join(os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(sys.argv[0])), "../share/smbios-utils")
clidir=os.path.join(os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(sys.argv[0])), "../share/smbios-utils")


Additional info:
* package version: latest
* config: default

Steps to reproduce:
$ pacman -S libsmbios
$ smbios-sys-info
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/smbios-token-ctl", line 36, in <module>
import cli
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'cli'

First bug and I already messed up...is there a way to edit the summary after the bug report is created?
Or, if this must be done by someone else, please change the summary to "Python imports are pointing to wrong directory."
I would also be happy to change "package version" to "2.4.1-1"

This was a bad build, substitutions did not occur for path or versions in these files. Bump pkgrel++ and rebuild should fix this. Tested on fresh chroot build date of post -10minutes.
