I am not very experienced with Linux, but if you don't use something like
PyInstaller, you could still install the main tree somewhere like
/usr/local/myapp/ and then generate a simple script for /usr/local/bin which
adds /usr/local/myapp to sys.path[0], and "import main" to boot the
application.

I'm not sure I have answered your question though :)
