Sridhar Ratnakumar <sridh...@activestate.com> added the comment: @Ronald: Ah, I see. So on Mac, Python 2.7 (with default site configuration) will not pickup packages installed in ~/.local, correct? It will, from now onwards, only consider ~/Library/Package as the user site directory? I ask because I just want to double check before modifying PyPM (which has ~/.local hardcoded in the client) to support this change.
@Tarek: I have user site enabled; didn't change anything .. just the default settings: $ /tmp/apy27/bin/python -m site sys.path = [ '/home/sridharr/as/apy/trunk', '/tmp/apy27/lib/python27.zip', '/tmp/apy27/lib/python2.7', '/tmp/apy27/lib/python2.7/plat-linux2', '/tmp/apy27/lib/python2.7/lib-tk', '/tmp/apy27/lib/python2.7/lib-old', '/tmp/apy27/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload', '/home/sridharr/.local/lib/python/2.7/site-packages', '/tmp/apy27/lib/python2.7/site-packages', '/tmp/apy27/lib/python2.7/site-packages/setuptools-0.6c11-py2.7.egg-info', ] USER_BASE: '/home/sridharr/.local' (exists) USER_SITE: '/home/sridharr/.local/lib/python/2.7/site-packages' (exists) ENABLE_USER_SITE: True ... That is strange user site location - "python/2.7/site-packages" really? Shouldn't it be "python2.7/site-packages"? ---------- title: 2.7: wrong user site directory on Linux; totally missing on OSX -> 2.7: wrong user site directory on Linux _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8759> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
