Step to reproduce:
1. Attempt to install one of the following packages from upstream/GNOME using default options:
a. Orca (which I maintain)
b. Accerciser
c. Secrets
Expected results: Libraries would be installed in /usr/local/lib/python3.x/...
Actual results: Libraries are installed in /usr/local/local/lib/python3.x/...
The install location is coming from Meson via `python.find_installation('python3').get_install_dir()`. And the value appears to be correct in other distros.
Note: I found an upstream (Meson) bug in which Fedora 36 had the same problem. It was fixed in Fedora. See https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/10459
Aside from potential packaging issues, there are quite a few end users of Orca who build and test development versions of Orca. Now that Orca has switched from autotools to Meson, those users who also use Orca are being hit by this problem. Therefore, it would be great if it could be fixed downstream.
Thanks in advance! |
