Bug in Wrapping/Python/setup_install_paths.py

This issue was created automatically from an original Mantis Issue. Further discussion may take place here.

Handling of options is in Wrapping/Python/setup_install_paths.py is buggy.

In line 38 of Wrapping/Python/setup_install_paths.py in Vtk 5.10, there is options[option] = 1 to handle command line options that do not contain a "=". However, "option" is not set or set to the value from the previous command arg if an ValueError in the option, value = string.split(arg,"=") operation is raised.

The line 38 should contain options[arg] = 1 because arg is the right thing here.

To see the bug call python Wrapping/Python/setup_install_paths.py purelib --prefix=/homebrew/Cellar/vtk/5.10.0 --single-version-externally-managed. You'll find that options['--prefix']==1.
