Does that make you easier handling logilab-common package? if that's
the case, no problem using it.
It seems (at least from the removal of --install-layout=deb into
setup.py) there's some mixture of "upstream" installation process
(setup.py) and debian package preparation (debian/rules and
--install-layout=deb, that's debian specific).
So if you use the debian/rules available in the debian package also
for upstream distribution, I will happily use ${py_setup_install_args}
in it, else just "trust" my maintainership of the package and that
I'll do "the right thing" when needed ;)
Cheers,
