Hi there,
when you install a setuptools-equipped package with
python setup.py build sudo python setup.py install
the "install" stage writes to the build directory, as root. This is not great behavior, and will fail on NFS-mounted build roots.
Can something be done to avoid this?
Something like: /path/to/python setup.py install_lib --skip-build works. I don't know why '--skip-build' doesn't keep the 'install' command from running 'build_py'.
