Description
I downloaded Django-1.3.1.tar.gz, extracted it, then in the extracted directory Django-1.3.1 executed "sudo python setup.py install" as directed by the document https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.3/topics/install/#installing-official-release (item 4 under "Installing an official release"). The directory "django" and file "Django-1.3.1.egg-info" were created under /usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages, not the site-packages directory as stated by the documentation. The My OS is Linux Mint.
This was already observed and fixed in #16287. The development version of the docs already contains the updated information.
