From the docs@ list:
"""
Dear all,
the first paragraph of the documentation for the site module states that site.py constructs four directories using a head and tail part, and that
one of the tail parts would be lib/pythonX.Y/site-packages on UNIX/Mac.
However, in my Python 3.2 installation on Ubuntu 12.04 this is actually lib/python3/dist-packages (so no .Y and a different subdirectory) !
This is also stated in the module’s doc string.
I don’t know why the Python documentation says something else, but that should be fixed.
"""
Attached a patch to explain why the defaults may look different on some distributions. Please review. |
