# Starting with Debian's Python 3.10, the default install scheme is
# 'posix_local' which is a Debian specific scheme based on 'posix_prefix' but
# with an added 'local' prefix. This is the default so users doing system wide
# manual installations of python modules end up in '/usr/local'. This
# interferes with our autotools based install which already defaults to
# '/usr/local' and expect a provided prefix to be used verbatim.
#
# Monkeypatch sysconfig to override this scheme and use 'posix_prefix' instead.

# some distros don't include any `/usr/local/` (the default install prefix) in
# the search path. This is also useful for out-of-tree installs and tests. It's
# only relevant to make this check on the `install` command.
