[issue40734] /usr/bin surprisingly in sys.path under IDLE

[Terry J. Reedy]

Terry J. Reedy <tjreedy at udel.edu> added the comment:

*Exactly* how are you starting IDLE?  This should only happen if you start IDLE in /usr/bin or edit a file in /usr/bin.  Is there any such thing on Linux/Debian as 'start IDLE from an icon', as on Windows?  If so, is the starting directory part of the icon configuration, as on Windows?
