[reportlab-users] [PATCH] fix building on certain RHEL-derived distributions

[Robin Becker]

Hi James,

I will use this patch, but I think it better to use

if isdir(subdir) instead of if exists(subdir)

The former seems to be true only if subdir is a dir or a link to a dir. The latter will try to append a file if that exists.
