I'll have a look at that, thanks.

I don't know if python even knows to look there, and even if it does there is really no reason to put them there. libselinux.so and libsepol.so will need to go to /lib but the python stuff should go to /usr/lib and I don't see a different argument for the python stuff (only --libdir).

Here you are referring to libpy*.so? if so then, Yes, python does know 
to look for it in its site-packages/$pkg/ folder.


And in regards to the AUTHORS file, it obviously would be in source 
control and as the persons in question patch the tree, they could 
obviously patch the file with their names as well, its not set in stone 
or anything.
