On my box, the sys.path is as follows 

[frank@cray frank]$ python
Python 1.5.2 (#1, Mar  3 2001, 01:35:43)  [GCC 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.1 2 on linux-i386
Copyright 1991-1995 Stichting Mathematisch Centrum, Amsterdam
>>> import sys
>>> sys.path 
['', '/usr/lib/python1.5', '/usr/lib/python1.5/', '/usr/lib/python1.5/plat-linux-i386',
'/usr/lib/python1.5/lib-tk', '/usr/lib/python1.5/lib-dynload', '/usr/lib/python1.5/site-packages']
>>>

And  PYTHONPATH=/usr/lib/python1.5 which is probably
prepended to the compiled in settings shown above.

What about using the "site-packages" area for
"ethereal_be.py" and "ethereal_gen.py"

ie: /usr/lib/python1.5/site-packages'
