Um...  I have no clue what you're saying.

You have the datadir ending in a / which causes the off-by-one issue in
pycategories.  If you remove that trailing /, then it'll work fine.

Further, this is something I meant to fix in pyblosxom a while back, but
then forgot.  I'm going to fix pyblosxom tonight so it won't matter
whether your datadir ends in a / or not because we'll clip the trailing /
if it's there so that we have a standard representation of the datadir
variable so that plugins know what to expect.

Hope that helps,
