[issue8759] 2.7: wrong user site directory on Linux

[Ronald Oussoren]

Ronald Oussoren <ronaldoussoren at mac.com> added the comment:

Shridar: that is correct a framework install will not look in ~/.local, but only in ~/Library/Python/2.7  (there is an install scheme in distutils that describes the exact layout).

Technically the name "Python" subdirectory is sysconfig.get_config_var("PYTHONFRAMEWORK"), to ensure that frameworks with different values for --with-framework-name will use different subdirectories.
