pybuild installation directory
I'm trying to update the veusz package to use python3 and pybuild. It seems be default that pybuild installs in usr/lib/python3.X/dist-packages/veusz. As far as I can see, the package should be installed in in usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/veusz. There's both arch-specific and non-arch-specific code. Is this correct? What's the proper way to fix this? I'm doing this dh $@ --with python3 --buildsystem=pybuild Thanks! Jeremy

I'm doing this that's correct. pybuild installs into versioned directory by default, but dh_python3 moves it (after tagging .so files) into unversioned one later. My suggestion is: do nothing and it will work If you really want to change it in pybuild, use --destdir or PYBUILD_DESTDIR or PYBUILD_DESTDIR_python3 -- Piotr Ożarowski Debian GNU/Linux Developer www.ozarowski.pl www.griffith.cc www.debian.org GPG Fingerprint: 1D2F A898 58DA AF62 1786 2DF7 AEF6 F1A2 A745 7645
