[pygtk] pygtk.require("2.0") changed sys.path[0]

Hi

If I do:

try:
	import pygtk
	pygtk.require("2.0")
except:
	pass

then sys.path[0] will point towards 
/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/gtk-2.0
in stead of the script. Is this expected behavior?

If so is there an alternative to sys.path[0] except from catching it
before doing pygtk.require. Do one need to do this at all by the way?

Thanks in advance

Preben
