Curdling on Windows installs to wrong site-packages

Open jasonfairleyaxis opened this issue 10 years ago • 0 comments

To reproduce: I'm using Python 2.7.9 installed in C:\Python27 with both C:\Python27 and C:\Python27\Scripts added to the PATH.

(Pathlib below is used as an example.)

  • pip install curdling
  • curd install pathlib

Then C:\Python27\Lib\python2.7\site-packages (wrong, newly created) contains pathlib, whilst C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages (correct on Windows) contains pip installed modules (e.g. curdling).

I may be making a mistake, but if I'm not doing anything unusual this may be due to the fact that there is a difference in where site-packages lives on OSX / Linux vs. Windows.
