commit 5463570061a7ca9ed947885b516c2551778b636f

    Support multiple python versions in brp-python-bytecompile (RhBug:53117)
    - For *.py files in python library path, use matching python interpreter
      version for compiling, this is especially needed for Python 3 which
      is very different from Python 2 code. And even if the code compiled
      with a wrong version, it would be recompiled at run-time when invoked
      with the intended python version, causing verification errors etc.
    - For *.py files outside the library path, use "system python" which
      might not be always correct but we dont really know any better.
    - Patch from David Malcolm
