Subject: fix: python bindings: install on Debian python >= 3.10
X-Git-Url: http://git.efficios.com/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d617eb920ca0200db3fee1674c7002d5ace084ba;hp=d617eb920ca0200db3fee1674c7002d5ace084ba;p=babeltrace.git

fix: python bindings: install on Debian python >= 3.10

Starting with Debian's Python 3.10, the default install scheme is
'posix_local' which is a Debian specific scheme based on 'posix_prefix'
but with an added 'local' prefix. This is the default so users doing
system wide manual installations of python modules end up in
'/usr/local'. This interferes with our autotools based install which
already defaults to '/usr/local' and expects a provided prefix to be
used verbatim.

Monkeypatch sysconfig to override this scheme and use 'posix_prefix'
instead.
