Hi,

Whilst working on the Reproducible Builds effort [0] we noticed that
cctools could not be built reproducibly.

This is because the various Python components are built with a
"./configure --prefix" value that is based on build user's home
directory which then gets embedded into various files. Although the
current debian/rules file does specify a value for --prefix in its
override_dh_auto_configure, this is overridden later in
override_dh_auto_install when the Python components are built.

A patch is attached that also the prefix to same value (ie. /usr).
