Just as note: distutils should read this from the Makefile rather than trying to guess - whether or not lib64 is used depends on the distribution, the way the particular Python version was installed, etc. (e.g. a user installed Python version will still install to /usr/lib per default - even on 64-bit platforms).
Should have been "/usr/local/lib/python2.4".
Is this a packaging bug in fedora?
No, it's just the way most Linux distro's tweak the Python setup to support 64-bit along side with 32-bit ones (which then usually live in /usr/lib et al). You often have problems with this choice if you want to build things from source on x86-64. In most cases, you need to set LDFLAGS to -L/usr/lib64 or edit Makefiles. to adjust the compiler settings. -- Marc-Andre Lemburg eGenix.com Professional Python Services directly from the Source (#1, Apr 15 2005)
