really? I thought that /usr/local/share was for architecture independent
files:

"The root of the directory tree for read-only architecture-independent
data files. This should normally be /usr/local/share" [1]

But I suppose that in this case

/usr/lib/python<version>/site-packages/

should be the right choice?
