Thanks for the answer.
Since my email, I have made some progress in Python:
there is a debian switch (which is incompatible with the --prefix switch):
python setup.py install --debian
So far, I get only error messages:
I guess I have to dig this matter.
Thanks,
Jerome

Hello List,
I have to use Python, which is new for me.
In particular I have to install some Python packages
which are not debianised on my Etch box:
I tired to do so, but I realized that the package
was installed in the /usr directory,
namely not in the /usr/local directory as I expected:
1] this seems not in accordance with the Debian policy
(and I do not like it);
2] is there some kind of `config.site' for Python ?
I think what you're looking for is the prefix switch:
python setup.py install --prefix=/usr/local
See section 3.2 of "Installing Python Modules" in the Python docs.
HTH,
