Our bob.nightlies are failing because of this package

Created by: tiagofrepereira2012

Hey, our nightlies builds are not passing because of this package.

Check it out. https://gitlab.idiap.ch/biometric/bob.nightlies

Basically this assertion is not working.

      dbfolder = 'bob/db/msu_mfsd_mod/test_images/'  #simulated db repo. containing only the 2 videos used in this test.
      self.assertTrue(os.path.isdir(dbfolder))

This assertion may work when the "main" package bob.db.msu_mfsd_mod. However, since this package is a sub-module on nightlies this relatively path is not valid.

I suggest you to use pkg_resources to discover this package (it is more consistent). For instance you can do something like this.

      import pkg_resources
      dbfolder = pkg_resources.resource_filename('bob.db.msu_mfsd_mod','test_images')
     self.assertTrue(os.path.isdir(dbfolder))
