Bug#848191: clang-3.8: scan-view-3.8 can't find python module ScanView in its path

[Jordi]

Package: clang-3.8
Version: 1:3.8.1-16
Severity: important
Tags: patch

Hi,

When running scan-view-3.8 after a scan-build, it can't find the ScanView
module:

$ scan-view /tmp/scan-build-2016-12-14-152605-2260-1
/usr/bin/../share/clang/scan-view
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/scan-view", line 144, in <module>
    main()
  File "/usr/bin/scan-view", line 141, in main
    run(port, args, args.root)
  File "/usr/bin/scan-view", line 71, in run
    import ScanView
ImportError: No module named ScanView

Looking at scan-view-3.8, the way it adds the directory to its path is
different depending on whether /usr/share/clang/scan-view-3.8/bin/scan-view is
called or its symbolic link at /usr/bin/scan-view-3.8.

Quick fix:
