This bug was fixed in the package python-setuptools - 0.6c9-0ubuntu4 --------------- python-setuptools (0.6c9-0ubuntu4) jaunty; urgency=low
* Update the installation schemes in easy_install to follow the modified distutils install command: - When the --prefix option is used for setup.py install, Use the `posix' scheme. LP: #344410. - Use the `deb_system' scheme if --install-layout=deb is specified. - Use the the `unix_local' scheme if neither --install-layout=deb nor --prefix is specified. * Always use the `posix' scheme for setup.py install in a virtualenv setup. LP: #339904. * Error out when easy_install tries to install into /usr, unless the (new) option --force-installation-into-system-dir is given (heh, this option name is even longer than --single-version-externally-managed). -- Matthias Klose <d...@ubuntu.com> Sat, 04 Apr 2009 13:13:59 +0200 ** Changed in: python-setuptools (Ubuntu) Status: New => Fix Released -- [jaunty] setuptools adds 'local' to prefix, breaking easy_install https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/344410 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
