The code currently used to get the python package directory is wrong
for Python 3:
from distutils import sysconfig; print
(sysconfig.get_python_lib(0,0,'/usr/local'))/usr/local/lib/python3/dist-packages
is wrong (should be /usr/local/lib/python3.2/dist-packages). Now, in
some sense this must be right (since the path is returned by
sysconfig), but the path produced
(/usr/local/lib/python3/dist-packages) is not searched by my Ubuntu
system's installed Python. If instead of automake I install the same
files with distutils (using a suitable setup.py), then the files are
installed in the right place (/usr/local/lib/python3.2/dist-packages).
It seems to me this is vendor bug as the right place is site-packages,
see PEP 370.
A cannot reproduce cut of version with "python" build from original
sources, i.e. without extra patches :
2.6. 2.7 3.2 return .../pythonX.Y/site-packages
