Add a workaround for Python packaging difficulties on Ubuntu. Specifically, cache the value of self.prefix before calling install.finalize_options, which on Ubuntu modifies self.prefix. Without this change, the path definitions in the installed Paths.py are wrong. (They refer to /usr/share/zenmap when they should refer to /usr/local/share/zenmap.)

# Nmap Changelog ($Id$); -*-text-*-
o [Zenmap] Added a workaround for a Ubuntu Python packaging idiosyncrasy.
As of version python2.6-2.6.4-0ubuntu3, Ubuntu's distutils modifies
self.prefix, a variable we use in the setup.py script. This would
cause Zenmap to look in the wrong place for its configuration files,
and show the dialog "Error creating the per-user configuration
directory" with the specific error "[Errno 2] No such file or
directory: '/usr/share/zenmap/config'". This problem was reported by
Chris Clements, who also helped debug. [David]
o Added better match lines for MIT Kerberos from Matt Selsky.
o [NSE] Added 5 new NSE scripts and a library for use with MySQL.
