-/usr/local/lib/python2.x/dist-packages/
-
-For uninstalling, you'll need to remove the "cnotmuch-0.1-py2.x.egg"
-directory and delete one entry in the "easy-install.pth" file in that
-directory.
-
-It needs to have a libnotmuch.so or libnotmuch.so.1 available in some
-library folder or will raise an exception when loading.
