# important place to fiddle with for anyone interested in
# installation schemes for the Python library. Issues that
# are not yet resolved to my satisfaction:
# * how much platform dependence should be here, and
# how much can be pushed off to sysconfig (or, better, the
# Makefiles parsed by sysconfig)?
# * how independent of Python version should this be -- ie.
# should we have special cases to handle Python 1.5 and
# older, and then do it "the right way" for 1.6? Or should
# we install a site.py along with Distutils under pre-1.6
# Python to take care of the current deficiencies in
# Python's library installation scheme?
#
# Currently, this method has hacks to distinguish POSIX from
# non-POSIX systems (for installation of site-local modules),
# and assumes the Python 1.5 installation tree with no site.py
# to fix things.

# exec_prefix), then we generate our own installation directories,
# following any pattern gleaned from sysconfig's findings. If no
# such pattern can be gleaned, then we'll just make do and try to
# ape the behaviour of Python's configure script.

# 'site-packages' under install_platlib. (The actual rule is that
# a module distribution that includes *any* platform-specific files
# -- ie. extension modules -- goes under install_platlib. This
# solves the "can't find extension module in a package" problem.)
