I'm a little rusty, but I think you want something like the following for
the python files (.py and .so):

export MODULE_NAME=lldb
# target a specific version
export PY_VERSION=2.6
# -or-
#export PY_VERSION=`python -c "import platform; print
platform.python_version().rsplit('.', 1)[0]"`

# install into:
mkdir -p $(python$PY_VERSION-config
--prefix)/lib/python$PY_VERSION/site-packages/$MODULE_NAME

I know autotools has macros for this, and it may be different for Fedora/Red
Hat machines.  But, this should most likely be passed in from the build
system (as Eli says)

yours,
Bobby
