Matthias Klose added the comment: the local patch adds as documentation on Debian/Ubuntu:
""" For Debian and derivatives, this sys.path is augmented with directories for packages distributed within the distribution. Local addons go into /usr/local/lib/python<version>/dist-packages, Debian addons install into /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages. /usr/lib/python<version>/site-packages is not used. """ I can improve the local information, but I'm not sure how much should be added/changed in the upstream documentation. So maybe we should add an option for python-config to get the site dirs, or the list of site dirs too? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17727> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
