the init script should be fixed first in poker-network. please check if this fix is enough.

the init script tries to use a script in the pycentraldir; please just
use the site-packages directory.

  pv=$(python -c 'import sys; print sys.version[:3]')
  serverscript=/usr/lib/python$pv/site-packages/pokernetwork/pokerserver.py

same for all other scripts

[Loic Dachary (dachary)]

The suggested patch has been applied and is available in version 1.7.7 of the package.

pv=$(python -c 'import sys; print sys.version[:3]')
botscript=/usr/lib/python$pv/site-packages/pokernetwork/pokerbot.py

instead of wrong guessing
