[Opendnssec-develop] where to install scripts

Isn't it better to use the Python habits for Python code?

Python has directories PREFIX/lib/pythonX.Y/site-packages/ for that
purpose.  It contains a README that specifies it is intended for
third-party add-ons:

> This directory exists so that 3rd party packages can be installed
> here.  Read the source for site.py for more details.

Running `pydoc site` shows that these 3rd party add-ons will be included
at startup.  It also warns that it adds a PREFIX=/usr/local/ only for
Debian.


Cheers,
