-----------------------------------------
Use the setuptools query function to determine where to install the
distribution.
> "make install" does not install qpid_dispatch[_site.py] files in the correct
> location

> Key: DISPATCH-1364
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DISPATCH-1364
> Project: Qpid Dispatch
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Tools
> Affects Versions: 1.8.0
> Reporter: Ken Giusti
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: Backlog
>
>
> Building and install qdr from source (cmake.... ; make install....) ends up
> putting qdr's python library modules in the wrong directory (not in the
> default python search path).
> Specifically, these files are incorrectly installed in a "site-packages"
> sub-directory:
> By default ubuntu's python does not use "site-packages" for installing 3rd
> party python packages - it uses "dist-packages" instead.
> The default python paths in ubuntu are:
> {quote}>>> import sys
> >>> sys.path
> ['', '/usr/lib/python36.zip', '/usr/lib/python3.6',
> '/usr/lib/python3.6/lib-dynload', *'/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages'*,
> '/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages']
> {quote}
>
> For example, proton correctly puts its python files in
> /usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/
> on ubuntu, while dispatch drops its packages into
> /usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/
