Description: The new P2Pool mining feature doesn't work. There is a message saying it will install P2Pool to /usr/bin, then it fails. It's quite obvious why this would fail, the application doesn't have permissions to /usr/bin. The path it install P2Pool into needs to be adjusted.


Additional info:
* 0.17.3.2-1

Steps to reproduce:
Advanced>Mining
Mining mode: P2Pool
Click "Start mining" and "Yes"
Observe failed installation of P2Pool.

What if you install the p2pool package using pacman?

Hadn't thought of that. When p2pool is installed it no longer tries to install it itself but fails to launch it with this error message in the logs:

We probably shouldn't be putting logs in /usr/bin

Is this still happening? p2pool has had some updates recently.
