/usr/local/bin/sketch can't be invoked via symlink

Hello!

One would expect that a program can be symlinked to and invoked via the
symlink.

/usr/local/bin/sketch fails to satisfy this: if you invoke it via a symlink,
you get

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/sketch.orig", line 30, in ?
    import Sketch
ImportError: No module named Sketch

It's rather due to a python bug than a bug in sketch (see my appropriate bug
report [python bug no. 794291]

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=794291&group_id=5470&atid=105470
)

but still it gets resolved, maybe it would be better if /usr/local/bin/sketch
were a shell script like 

env PYTHONPATH=/usr/local/lib/sketch-0.6.15 
/usr/local/lib/sketch-0.6.15/sketch.py

rather than a symlink to /usr/local/lib/sketch-0.6.15/sketch.py
