Subject: make dist and python files
Date: Tue, 11 Jan 2005 10:29:07 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <41E41AF3.9010400@intel.com> (raw)
In the xeno-unstable tree,
# make install
populates python files in /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/xen
However,
# make dist
populates them in
dist/install/lib/python
For people trying to package up Xen into an installable object (rpm/deb
whatever) this creates a problem.
So my question is, why not have
# make dist
also populate
dist/install/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/xen
Of course, this won't work for situations where the build machine and
the target machine have a different version of python.
Relevant snippet from tools/python/Makefile:
install: all
if [ "$(prefix)" = "" ]; then \
python setup.py install; \
elif [ "$(dist)" = "yes" ]; then \
python setup.py install --home="$(prefix)"; \
else \
python setup.py install --root="$(prefix)"; \
fi
