Éric Araujo <mer...@netwok.org> added the comment: We do not want to create a directory under $prefix before installation. This would be a sort of dirty half-installation. When you have an uninstalled, unconfigured Python, you cannot install modules without giving a prefix option: this sounds good to me.
