[PATCH v2] Correct references to /usr/bin/python which does not exist on FreeBSD

From: R. Tyler Ballance <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:48:28

On FreeBSD, Python does not ship as part of the base system but is available
via the ports system, which install the binary in /usr/local/bin.

I would have expected that the patch would look more like this:

Sorry, I was under the impression somebody who knew what the hell they were
doing would be the one adding a Sign-off By to the commit :)

No, that looks right, I didn't notice the specialized section towards the
bottom for FreeBSD or the others for that matter.

Third time's the charm
