No image quickly ubuntu-project based package once installed

(data/ is a mandatory when packaging using distutils-extra.auto and only exists during project creation)

4 solutions:
-> /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/gfre/AbouttestappDialog.py and /usr/bin/testapp should detects if data/ exists (in quickly project file). That will means the same for every files using media files :/
-> copy in some sort of "build" directory all files in the projects and then executing python-mkdebian + packaging when executing a package-related command. We can, by this way, copy every unknown files/directories in the data/ directory and then package. This will make things more complex with python-mkdebian as we will have to copy back the debian/ folder to the project trunk once the package is created (at least, for debian/changelog tracking).
-> Make the setup.py more complex to not use distutils-extra.auto for the media/ directory
-> add a function that do that for the user (solution 1, but easier).

Thoughts?

See http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~quickly/quickly/trunk/revision/187
now, for developers, getting the data path is just a matter of:

from project_name.project_nameconfig import getdatapath
foo_path = getdatapath()
