Hello,<br>
I'm relatively new to python, and I have a few questions related to distutils.<br>
<br>
1) If I attempt to install script files without a .py extension, distutils installs them twice- once with a .py extension and once without. Is there a way to work around that?<br>
<br>
<br>
I've never seen the behavior you're describing. You should probably post your setup.py for us to see what you're doing.<br>
<br>
I've attached it.<br>

By "post", I mean posting it to the distutils-sig. I don't do private tech support - especially not for the distutils.</blockquote><div><br>Sorry.

2) Is there a way to change the default install prefix from /usr to /usr/local?<br>
<br>
<br>
You can change that systemwide by creating the appropriate config file. Please see the configuration file section of the "Installing Python Modules" manual.<br>
<br>
Is there any way to change it within the script? It makes more sense to install my particular app into /usr/local than /usr.<br>

It can be changed in lots of places, including the script or setup.cfg. Please see the manual.<br>
