Nope. It doesn't work like that. Your patch modifies the new policy part of python-distutils.mk:
--- 8< --- ifndef DEB_PYTHON_SYSTEM #### old policy method #### (...) else #### new policy methods #### (... patch applies here ...) endif --- 8< --- And this part can only be reached if either pysupport or pycentral is used. -- [Edgy] python-distutils class assumes pycentral if DEB_PYTHON_SYSTEM not defined https://launchpad.net/bugs/53568 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
