Looking at get_python_lib(), I'm not so sure that I'm correct:
if os.name == "posix": libpython = os.path.join(prefix, "lib", "python" +
get_python_version())
Although, I'm getting a bit confused. I just compiled and installed
Python(CVS) configured as:
./configure --prefix=/usr/dev --libdir=/usr/dev/pylib
But it didn't install anything in /usr/dev/pylib, as one would expect.
It just threw everything in /usr/dev/lib. I even gmake'd distclean to
make sure there wasn't some configure option cache of some sort. Same
thing.
ISTM that Python's libdir wasn't meant to be located anywhere other than
EPREFIX/lib.
