pypfop 0.2.0 and environment variable FOP_CMD

Question

I'm trying to get working pypfop 0.2.0 with this tutorial. Unfortunately I'm not able to pass through step 2.2:

Decompress in wherever place you like and set environment variable FOP_CMD to the bin/fop of the decompressed folder.

Links seem broken so I downloaded binary package from here but suppose it doesn't matter. However, if I decompress the package no path bin/fop is presneted.

My current FOP_CMD setup (I've decompressed fop package into ~/utils):

$ echo $FOP_CMD
~/utils/fop-1.1

Now I get this exception if I try to run example from the tutorial:

Exception: Unable to find the path to execute FOP.Check the environment variable "FOP_CMD"

The question is, what should be environment variable FOP_CMD set for?

Answer 1

OK, I've finally found out the answer and it is very simple: the correct way is fop-1.1/fop.
