Deb installs (like nativecam) typically put required executables
in a system directory (usually /usr/bin) so that they are available
to all users with a standard PATH setting in their environment.
Full path names are seldom required for such executables.
You can run some shell commands to see if the deb is installed correctly.
For example:
Code:
$ dpkg -l nativecam # Check if pkg is installed (-l (letter) not -1 (one))
Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold
| Status=Not/Inst/Conf-files/Unpacked/halF-conf/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend
|/ Err?=(none)/Reinst-required (Status,Err: uppercase=bad)
