Are scripted DataEngines supposed to be installed through plasmapkg?

[Luca Beltrame]

Hello again,

following Aaron's suggestion I started working on a Python  DataEngine for my 
little idea. I started off by looking at the pytime DataEngine that is in 
SVN,, but I'm unsure how to properly install it so that is picked up by 
Plasma. The directory structure suggested it could be installed through 
plasmapkg, but if I do so, both with my embryonic project and the example in 
SVN, I get errors (see the post I made on kde-bindings[1]). 

However, it occurred to me that perhaps it's not the way it's meant to be 
installed (since even in the CMakeLists.txt the install part of the DataEngine 
is commented), because according to the debug output, Plasma does not pick up 
the location of the DataEngine[2] (cf: the "mainscript" and "package path" 
lines). Everything is fine if I install the test  Applet, instead. 

Is there anything I'm doing wrong? Thanks in advance.
