-Subject: [PATCH] python3-installer: add installer module
+Subject: [PATCH 1/2] installer: add --interpreter option
 
-Let us override the hashbang directly (possibly upstreamable), and don't
-play games with hashbangs: for now assume that even hashbangs with spaces
-are simple (assume the spaces are only used to separate arguments) and
-we don't have long hashbangs.
+The currently running Python might not be the right one for the installed
+wheels, so add an option to allow the interpreter to be overridden.
 
-Upstream-Status: Inappropriate
+This is essential in cross/distro builds where we want to install a
+wheel into a working directory to build a distro package (eg a rpm or
+deb) with pypa/installer, but the currently running python on the build
+host might not be the right path for the scripts to use on the target.
