Package: libpython3.5-minimal Version: 3.5.2-5 Severity: normal Sysconfig module points to site-packages directory instead of dist-package if compared to distutils.sysconfig. If someone uses Automake to build/install python extensions (e.g. like hamlib2 does) then the python module will go to the wrong directory (as Automake uses sysconfig instead of distuitls.sysconfig by default). See the following log:
