Bug 39282 – beecrypt-3.1.0-r1 and rpm-4.2.1 ebuilds install into /usr/lib/python23.zip/ instead of /usr/lib/python2.3

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Vaclav Slavik 2004-01-24 13:24:04 UTC]

With Python 2.3, beecrypt and rpm packages incorrectly install Python modules into /usr/lib/python23.zip/ instead of /usr/lib/python2.3. This is due to a bug in their makefiles, they incorrectly assume that first path on Python's sys.path is site-packages directory. Attached patches for both ebuilds fix this (both need to patch the makefiles a little).
