ports/devel/py-cov-core/files/patch-setup.py

Based on debian patch:

Author: Barry Warsaw <barry@debian.org>
Patch-Name: pth-installation-path
Subject: Calculate the correct .pth path

 cov-core wants to install the file init_cov_core.pth so that cov_core_init
 will be imported and initialized automatically for subprocess coverage, if
 the environment variable COV_CORE_SOURCE is set (which e.g. nose does
 automatically).  However the upstream setup.py tries to install this file
 directly into /usr/lib/pythonX.Y/{site,dist}-packages, which clearly doesn't
 work when building the package.  This patch hard codes the .pth path for a
 location within the build directory.  dh_python{2,3} does the rest.
