edb on Gentoo isn't finding the plug-in libraries

[GoogleCodeExporter]

when I run edb (installed via ebuild) on Gentoo (both x86 and x86-64), it fails 
to load any of the plugins.  If I manually cd to the edb library directory and 
then run edb, it runs fine.

It has been a while since I tested the ebuild, I'll give it a whirl and see 
what's up. Did you try settings the plugin directory in EDB's settings? It 
should be something like: /usr/lib/edb.

Actually I just noticed the options in the edb config GUI.  Setting it to where 
the edb libraries fixes the problem.   I guess I was expecting it to work by 
default.   No biggie.

Ah, so the question now is. Had you run it before *not* from the ebuild? If so, 
the problem is that it was using the settings from previous runs. In which 
case, updating the config is the proper fix.

No, I had not run edb before.   Upon emerging edb, the default value for the
Plugin Directory is:
DEFAULT_directory.plugin.path

Ouch, that is in fact a bug. Looks like a search/replace bit me :( It's fixed 
in my dev tree so it should be correct for future versions.

Thanks for the report!
