Got an user report about setup.py install not honoring PYTHONUSERBASE. Is this by design? If not, the attached patch seems to implement this functionality. |

install_userbase is using USER_BASE which is in site.py. This value is initialized when Python starts, and does check for PYTHONUSERBASE in the environ. (if ENABLE_USER_SITE is true) If this doesn't happen, this is most likely because the user can't write to its .local. If he can, you need to debug the Python starting process (site.main()) to see why it's not used. |

Hello It seems to me that your patch doesn’t fix a bug but adds a feature. PEP 370 says that “distutils.command.install (setup.py install) gets a new argument --user to install packages in the user site directory”, not that the presence of the envvar should trigger the user install scheme. Can you give a link to the original bug report? Regards |
