When the python bindings are installed to a destdir with pip install
--prefix= --root=, pip tries to uninstall the existing root-owned
package and fails
Fixes:
running build_ext
python3 -m pip install --prefix=/usr `test -n "/tmp/selinux-release//build-master" && echo --root /tmp/selinux-release//build-master` .
