Runs the system-installed Python

[probonopd]

If we bundle a script that uses !/usr/bin/env python, then we end up running the system-installed Python rather the bundled one. We need some sort of a wrapper to set up $PATH at least.

Duplicate of/related to #12.

This can't be done simply, since we cannot guess the path of the Python installation in the AppDir, the paths in shebangs are either absolute or it's about things in $PATH, as you stated. Can you evaluate other commands or environment variables in a shebang? Then $APPDIR/usr/bin/python or $(readlink -f .)/python or so might work.

[TheAssassin]

As stated in #12, Python scripts should never call each other "directly", as that's anything but portable. And for running at first, python -m "name_of_module" is usually good enough.

If either of the solutions above works (I'd favor the $APPDIR one) that'd be a great step forward and we could also fix #12 with that.

I think we need some sort of AppRun, no?

[TheAssassin]

Yes, it's needed with this. But the solution is not really to export any variables. That only works when the shebang uses /usr/bin/env or doesn't specify an absolute path altogether. The proper solution for #12 would be to replace the shebangs, and that likely also makes the need for an AppRun obsolete so it could solve #25, too.
