Installation paths
Dear list,
This issue was started on debian-devel. However, this list is perhaps a
better choice (?)
I try handle a package which installs a partly compiled,
architecture-dependent python module. That is, besides some normal
python files it also contains a compiled, architecture-dependent so-file
which is imported by the python files.
Until now this has been installed in
/usr/lib/triplet/python3.10/site-packages. This scheme has basically
worked fine.
However, here is an Ubuntu bug [1] where a user runs into problems
because this installation path is not in sys.path by default.
I have been trying to look in the python policy docs, but cannot find
the exact way to install code like this.
Any thoughts out there?
Cheers!
