Python 2.6 Install on OSX Server 10.5: lWhich flag to use in"configure" to Change the Install locati

Omita

Long story short... I am installing Python 2.6 on OSX Server. By
default the Python.framework is installing in /Library:

/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework

However, as I am using OSX Server I would ideally like the install
location to be here:

/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/

Do I need to use the "--libdir" flag? Or is that referring to "lib"
not "Library"?

-Thanks

My first intuition would be that - even if it works - this would break
future OS X updates, since you're probably not fixing the receipt files.

That's a good recipe to ruin your system software.
