Is it? I think you are confusing two different configuration sections in sysconfig.cfg: [nt] stdlib = {base}/Lib platstdlib = {base}/Lib purelib = {base}/Lib/site-packages platlib = {base}/Lib/site-packages include = {base}/Include platinclude = {base}/Include scripts = {base}/Scripts data = {base} [nt_user] stdlib = {userbase}/Python{py_version_nodot} platstdlib = {userbase}/Python{py_version_nodot} purelib = {userbase}/Python{py_version_nodot}/site-packages platlib = {userbase}/Python{py_version_nodot}/site-packages include = {userbase}/Python{py_version_nodot}/Include scripts = {userbase}/Scripts data = {userbase} -- Scott Dial sc...@scottdial.com _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
