That sounds perhaps broken. The only sane places are a) in the PREFIX
of gpsd and b) where the found python has site-packages, which might be
someplace other than /usr/lib. In particular, it would be /usr/pkg on
pkgsrc. If you meant "where the python interpreter thinks of as the
standard place" rather than /usr/lib/pythonx.y/site-packages", then I
think we're all set.
I haven't been noticing this issue; I hope that's because I've been
building with prefix=/usr/pkg and python is also there so all choices
end up with the same directory anyway.
