Following up on conversations at PyCon, I want to bring up one of my
personal hobby horses for change in 3.3: Fix install layout on Windows,
with a side order of making the PATH work better.
Short version:
1) The layout for the python root directory for all platforms should be
as follows:
stdlib = {base/userbase}/lib/python{py_version_short}
platstdlib = {base/userbase}/lib/python{py_version_short}
purelib = {base/userbase}/lib/python{py_version_short}/site-packages
platlib = {base/userbase}/lib/python{py_version_short}/site-packages
include = {base/userbase}/include/python{py_version_short}
scripts = {base/userbase}/bin
data = {base/userbase}
What is {base/userbase} actually on a typical machine? It is fixed or
user choice?
