[Duplicity-talk] 0.4.6: setup.py install with --prefix not working

[Andreas Schildbach]

Hi Kenneth,

I was just trying Duplicity 0.4.6 when I ran into the very same problem 
I had with 0.4.3:

# python setup.py install --prefix=~/duplicity
[...]

# ~/duplicity/bin/duplicity --version
duplicity 0.4.2

The version number stems from the Debian package, which is installed in 
parallel (if that package is missing, a file not found error will be 
displayed instead).

Please have a look at thread "Duplicity 0.4.4.RC3 Ready". We identified 
the path to the site packages as the culprit. Those need to be adapted 
by setup.py to the prefixed directory. Should I file this as a bug?

Regards,

Andreas
