I think it would still be clearer to say
/usr/share/package-name/module.py, /usr/lib/package-name/module.so,
assuming the library-user code involves "import module"?

(Or invent an example like Debian package foo containing Python module
foolib, which would lead to something like /usr/share/foo/foolib.py,
/usr/lib/foo/foolib.so or /usr/share/foo/foolib/__init__.py, or use a
real example like virt-manager or guake)
