[Strontium <strntydog@xxxxxxxxx>]

I am building with this:
$ cmake ../kicad-source-mirror -DKICAD_SKIP_BOOST=ON 
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/kicad-build 
-DDEFAULT_INSTALL_PATH=/opt/kicad-build -DKICAD_SCRIPTING=ON 
-DKICAD_SCRIPTING_MODULES=ON -DKICAD_SCRIPTING_WXPYTHON=ON
$ make all
$ make install

That installs pcbnew.py in :
/opt/kicad-build/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pcbnew.py

which is NOT a system directory.

I do not build and install my test versions with root privilege, as my 
normal user owns /opt/kicad-build, and i don’t experience this problem.  
So i'm not sure what the issue Clemens is getting trying to do the same 
thing.
