Have you tried a normal install without specifying the prefix and
librsync options?  That should work.  There are a lot of complications
when trying to use other than the default Python install options, mainly
with the PYTHONPATH settings.  It's just not worth the hassle.

In addition, to compile librsync correctly you will need the module
librsync-dev from the repositories.
