I'm not sure a bug report is the way to go. Despite that, contacting the Python folks may help in deciding how to handle this. I think obeying the principle of less surprise and do what other projects do would be the best option here. Thinking a bit more about it, I think that autotools projects usually have a --with-python=<path to python interpreter> configure option that tells the install machinery which python interpreter the admin wishes to use to run the script or for which interpreter the modules should be available. Given that, the python install path is fixed. Cheers, Daniele _______________________________________________ devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ntpsec.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
