Original code:

Potential replacement:

That is a correct replacement. It will return the same value in rpmbuild environment.
Maybe the original code was wrong, but I guess we don't want to install site packages in /usr/local when running under RPM at least.
$ python3 -c 'import sysconfig; print(sysconfig.get_path("platlib"));' /usr/local/lib64/python3.11/site-packages
$ RPM_BUILD_ROOT=/ python3 -c 'import sysconfig; print(sysconfig.get_path("platlib"));' /usr/lib64/python3.11/site-packages
Ah ha! Good one, thanks :-)
Here's the fix for libguestfs: https://github.com/libguestfs/libguestfs/commit/26940f64a740676103b0ee49bf0c...
I'll leave this fix to stew for a while and if it works I'll fix various other projects in a similar way.
Rich.
