This is used by smart which is in the function package_install_internal_rpm, 
which is used by populate_sdk_rpm and rootfs_rpm_do_rootfs.

This could be moved into the populate_sdk_rpm and rootfs_rpm classes, or we need 
an easy way to simply add this to the path in the functions that call python-native.
