Subject: [Buildroot] [PATCH] python: Use fixed path for sys.executable
Date: Sun, 12 Aug 2012 22:06:05 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1344773165-5165-1-git-send-email-net147@gmail.com> (raw)

The path to the Python interpreter is returned by sys.executable.
However, setuptools uses sys.executable to generate the shebang
interpreter directive used for entry point scripts that will run
on the target system. In this case, it will return the path of the
host Python interpreter when it should be the path of the Python
interpreter on the target.

To fix this, just return a fixed path of /usr/bin/python for
sys.executable.
