Hello,
I'm relatively new to python, and I have a few questions related to distutils.
1) If I attempt to install script files without a .py extension,
distutils installs them twice- once with a .py extension and once
without. Is there a way to work around that?
I've never seen the behavior you're describing. You should probably
post your setup.py for us to see what you're doing.
2) Is there a way to change the default install prefix from /usr to
/usr/local?
You can change that systemwide by creating the appropriate config
file. Please see the configuration file section of the "Installing
Python Modules" manual.
3) Is it possible to find the install prefix that was actually used.
(e.g. if the user set --prefix to something other than /usr/local).
I'd like to store the prefix in a file so that I can later uninstall
from the correct prefix. (Or is there an easier way to uninstall
that I'm missing?)
You can use the --record option to the install command to write a
list of all files that were installed.
