installing u-s in parallel to python-2.6 #133

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Due to requiring a recompilation of pkgs for ABI issues, it's a bit tricky 
for distro's to deploy u-s- especially since it likes to take the same 
location on disk as python-2.6.

While changing the prefix is possible, this isn't likely to fly, at least 
not for gentoo (which is where I do my work).

So... attached is a prototype patch shifting the install naming from 
python2.6 to python2.6-unladen .  Current patch doesn't make it a configure 
time option- more of a proof for testing.

That said, looking to get feedback- if this were configurable, would a 
sane/cleaned up patch be accepted?

Note this is dependant on issue #122 also, since effectively all pkgs used 
DESTDIR (or 
similar build framework tricks) to do an offset install, inspect that install, 
then 
transfer it to the actual merge location...
