While you're at it, use something like this (code taken from my
ecasound.SlackBuild):

# Figure out the version number part of the python lib dir:
PYVER=$( python -c 'import sys; print "%d.%d" % sys.version_info[0:2]' )

PYVER will be "2.6" or "2.7" or whatever. Then in your
./configure or cmake or whatever, use something like
--with-python-modules=/usr/lib$LIBDIRSUFFIX/python$PYVER

Then when Slack 14.1 comes out, with python 2.8, your script wouldn't
need changing (at least, it wouldn't need that part changed).

same job, feel free to correct me.
