Hello, Would keeping PYTHON_PREFIX but changing its default to the "classical" value be a working solution for this ?

If it's so we can install modules in a place where python will find them, it makes sense that $PYTHON_PREFIX may be distinct from $prefix. If it's so that we can install modules in a consistent subdir relative to the prefix, then we run into the problem that what python gives you is not always relative to the prefix (and isn't necessarily consistent). It seems like using a fixed subdir would solve that problem better than asking python. If reliance on the previous behaviour is widespread enough that the change is unacceptable, some alternatives might be to have different behaviour depending on whether the discovered python is in the configured prefix or not, or depending on whether or not python is a framework build. The downside is more special cases and more potential for confusion. Whatever else you decide to do, please keep the --with-python_prefix option. Having that makes it at least possible to install in the right place for framework builds, even if the defaults go back to being incorrect for that case. - Josh Ce message et toutes les pièces jointes (ci-après le 'Message') sont établis à l'intention exclusive des destinataires et les informations qui y figurent sont strictement confidentielles.
