Bug Description

Binary package hint: python-virtualenv

I'm unable to build python-virtualenv on jaunty. The problem seems to be that there is a hardcoded "usr/bin/virtualenv" in debian/rules, this works fine for versions of python < 2.6, but with python2.6 'python setup.py install' seems to install the resulting script to "usr/local/bin". Please see the attached log of my pbuilder session for more details.

The FTBFS is easy to fix, just add --install-layout=deb to the setup.py install line.

However, the package still doesn't work when built.

I think it's going to require careful patching to deal with the changed file layouts in Jaunty's default python.
