I have a question about gmsh/gmsh-sdk installation under python - I realise this is not a gmsh question exactly, so hope it is OK.</div>

I was trying to install gmsh and gmsh-sdk on a computer running ubuntu 18.04 using 'pip3 install gmsh' (I also tried 'pip3 install gmsh-sdk'). On my mac laptop (OSX 10.15.4) this works fine. It puts the appropriate python gmsh files under /usr/local/ and everything
works fine. However under ubuntu it installed to files under $HOME/.local/ and python3 says it cannot find the gmsh module. I have modified the PYTHONPATH variable to take into account $HOME/.local/, but this doesn't help.

I really don't know what is going on on two fronts:</div>
<div style="font-family:Calibri,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:12pt;color:rgb(0,0,0)">
<ol>
<li>I don't know why pip is installing things in different places between my two machines.</li><li>When I type print(sys.path) in python it points to the places where I think gmsh should be. Which files am I looking for exactly?</li></ol>
<div>After a long time trawling the internet, I couldn't find anything that would help me with these issues.</div>

<div>Any insights would be much appreciated.</div>
