[Slackbuilds-users] Installing Python packages

[Jeremy Hansen]

Just so you know, unless there's binaries created outside of the
/usr/lib/python-*/ directories, you can safely compile both the python2 and
python3 versions in the same SlackBuild.

You can just add a second line to run "python3 setup.py install
--root=$PKG" and each will be installed into their respective python
folders.

This way, if any python2 programs/scripts rely on these programs, it won't
break them.
