This bug was fixed in the package python2.6 - 2.6.1-1ubuntu2 --- python2.6 (2.6.1-1ubuntu2) jaunty; urgency=low * Update installation schemes: LP: #338395. - When the --prefix option is used for setup.py install, Use the `unix_prefix' scheme. - Use the `deb_system' scheme if --install-layout=deb is specified. - Use the the `unix_local' scheme if neither --install-layout=deb nor --prefix is specified. - The options --install-layout=deb and --prefix are exclusive. * Don't fail installation/removal if directories in /usr/local cannot be created.

This breaks the whole sugar-jhbuild environment [1] on Ubuntu Jaunty as Python packages will install to the wrong path.
