Confirming error.

[Mark Bailey (markjohnbailey)]

The startup script /usr/bin/gazpacho is trying to explicitly add site-packages to the python sys.path, but site-packages is now replaced by dist-packages for python 2.6.

[Krzysztof Klimonda (kklimonda)]

Patch fixing /usr/bin/gazpacho to look for dist-packages instead of site-packages when invoked using python 2.6
