[issue9807] deriving configuration information for different builds with the same prefix

[Matthias Klose]

Matthias Klose <doko at debian.org> added the comment:

this adds the modifier to the <prefix>/python3.2<abi>/config directory.

Now you end up with both
  
  <prefix>/python3.2<abi>/config

and

    <prefix>/python3.2/

for anything else. This is not what Debian, Fedora and Ubuntu are currently doing. Is this really wanted? I'd rather like to see this as

    <prefix>/python3.2/config-<abi>

so that everything is again in one prefix.


$ ls -l <prefix>/lib/pkgconfig/
total 4
-rw-r--r-- 1 doko doko 282 Nov 14 02:44 python-3.2.pc
lrwxrwxrwx 1 doko doko  13 Nov 14 02:44 python-3.2mu.pc -> python-3.2.pc

python-3.2mu.pc should be the file, python-3.2.pc the symlink.
