Errors running after setup.py install --user #81

setup.py install --user completes successfully, but the shell script placed in ~/.local/bin refers to /usr/share/gnome-gmail/gnomegmail.py and so throws an error when run.

If I fix this, I run into the next problem: gnomegmail.py is looking for a glade file in /usr/share, but it was installed in ~/.local/share and so the program crashes with an exception. If I change the hard-coding on this, gnome-gmail works correctly as far as I can tell.

Can gnome-gmail be modified to behave properly under --user installs?

The package was originally developed to yield a deb install. I'm not in an environment where I would care about an alternate installation, but I'd consider patches.
