Hi All,

This email is in regards to issue #331:

https://github.com/csound/csound/issues/331

This discusses where the python wrapper to csound should be installed.
 I made a change that installs into the user's site-packages folder.
However, we can also install into the system's site-packages folder.
(The issue tracker shows the differences in locations for OSX and
Linux).

On OSX, we had been using the user's site-packages folder (within
~/Library).  Andres' request is to have install into the system's
site-packages.  We can have it default to either, and maybe different
on different platforms.

If anyone has thoughts about this, please chime in.

Thanks!
steven

I should have mentioned, this issue affects only users who are
compiling Csound themself and running "make install".  The installers
are all set to install to the system's site-packages folder.  I
imagine for institutions, they will use the installer rather than
install from a self-build.

I suppose we could add an option to the CMake build too to override
the python install location to either the system or user
site-packages.

Not at all, I wasn't very clear in this and should have explained
better in my first email. Thanks for raising the issue!
