+# On Debian (Ubuntu, and other downstream distros) the install location of
+# Python packages is "../dist-packages" instead of "../site-packages" [1].
+# The install location used by "$(PYTHON) setup.py install" must match the
+# location specified in the ZFS specfile (RPM macro "%{python_sitelib}") to
+# avoid errors during the rpmbuild process.
+# However we cannot pass "--install-layout=deb" to the setup script here because
+# it is not supported on RPM-based distros; we use the combination of
+# "--prefix", "--root" and "--install-lib" parameters instead which should work
+# on every supported system.

+# Using "--no-compile" will not generate .pyc files which, in turn, will not be
+# packaged: this could result in failures during the uninstall phase if these
+# files are later created by manually loading the Python modules.
