Description

http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/install/

"Where are my site-packages stored?" Something like this should be added to that section: 

python -c "from distutils.sysconfig import get_python_lib; print get_python_lib()"

and that section should be referenced lower on the page under "Installing the development version" where almost 1/2 the text is about finding the site-packages dir.

  • needs_better_patch changed.
  • stage changed from Unreviewed to Accepted.
  • needs_tests changed.
  • needs_docs changed.

Adding something like this would be a good idea. It's compatible all the way back to 2.3. Care to write up a patch (against docs/install.txt)?
