2008-05-11 16:33:44 Kjell Braden description Installing the library via python setup.py build sudo python setup.py install does not lead to a usable pyotr the otr.py is not copied to the site-package directory It is usable after doing so Installing the library via python setup.py build sudo python setup.py install does not lead to a usable pyotr the otr.py is not copied to the site-package directory It is usable after doing so -- Taken from the upstream python bug: Distutils should tell swig to create it's C wrapper file into the temporary directory (eg. build/temp.linux-i686-2.5) and to write the language specific files to the library directory (eg. build/lib.linux-i686-2.5). Rationale: Without the language specific files, python swig extensions won't be able to run, so they should definetly be distributed by distutils. The wrapper files are build by-products and should therefore be in the temporary directory, so they get cleaned up on "setup.py clean".
