gpsd @2.95 +python26 installs Python modules in wrong location

[aaugustin (Aymeric Augustin)]

The Python modules are installed in /opt/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages. But that directory is not in PYTHONPATH.

They should probably be installed in /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/site-packages instead.

Example:

Python 2.6.6 (r266:84292, Dec 23 2010, 12:57:07) 
[GCC 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5664)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import gps                                # fails
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named gps
>>> import sys; sys.path.append('/opt/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages')
>>> import gps                                # works fine now
>>> 

I can avoid the problem by setting PYTHONPATH, but it may be interesting to understand why this port behaves differently from all other ports that install Python modules.
