Python install paths

[Efraim Flashner]

I've been working slowly on getting onionshare packaged, and I've run
into a problem with the install phase. Normally everything just works,
but our --prefix=%out doesn't seem to overide the sys.prefix install
path in some setup.py files. The one in onionshare has some that look
like this:
(os.path.join(sys.prefix, 'share/applications'), 
['install/onionshare.desktop']),
https://github.com/micahflee/onionshare/blob/master/setup.py

I've tried using substitute to switch 'sys.prefix' to %out, and it
installs but the program can't seem to find the files its looking for,
notably the locales.

Has anyone else run into problems like this and figured something out?
