It failed like this in all ubuntu releases for which we have a build recipe for.

[Andreas Hasenack (ahasenack)]

This was fixed in trunk, not sure which revision. Files were being installed with a /usr/local prefix instead of /usr.

[Andreas Hasenack (ahasenack)]

Actually, it's not fixed yet.

d/rules has these lines:
-include /usr/share/python/python.mk
(...)
python3 setup.py install --root $(root_dir)/ $(py_setup_install_args)

py_setup_install_args is responsible for fixing the /usr/local prefix, and it's defined in /usr/share/python/python.mk. That mk file, though, comes from python2. For python3 we need /usr/share/python3/python.mk

Now it's fixed: https://github.com/CanonicalLtd/landscape-client/pull/26
