I installed the leap motion (Linux/Ubuntu) hot fix .deb file on my Ubuntu 16.04 box.
I am using python.
When I try to run a hello_world.py it fails to import the leap module.
The above deb file installed fine. And I can start the service. I also can activate the GUI (leapmotioncontrol, I think that's the name). I can get the floating hands with my leap motion unit plugged into my box.
I've tried utilizing their hello_world code, but can't seem to locate the module.

You need to download the SDK from this link. In this you can find a folder named LeapSDK. Copy it to your
$HOME(/home/userwhereuseris your username) and do this:export PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:$HOME/LeapSDK/lib:$HOME/LeapSDK/lib/x64
