I was expecting the new amara files/folders to be installed within the
existing c:\python24\ folder structure...wasn't expecting it to create
a new ...\python24\ folder within the parent ...\python24\ folder.
My questions:
1) has anyone else observed this when installing?
2) should I move the newly installed files/folders into the
previously-existing folder structure? as long as I don't remove
files/folders, is there any risk of causing a previously installed site
package that worked to no longer work?
