[issue18092] Python 2.7.5 installation broken on OpenSuse 12.2

Tom Gross added the comment:

I guess you are on a 64bit os an the issue is a variant of issue1294959. Some of the components (scripts) are installed in the $PREFIX/lib folder and some are (libs) installed in the $PREFIX/lib64 folder. a workaround which worked for me (on OpenSuse 12.3 which faced the same issue) is specifying a lib directory on configure like this:

> ./configure --prefix=/opt/Python275 --libdir=/opt/Python275/lib

All components (scripts & libs) are in the $PREFIX/lib folder then.
