Installation failed by "No module named site" message #19

Description

@jeffwji

I'm trying to install rPython on Windows 7, failed by "No module named site". My environment configuration is:

Python 3.6.3 is installed under "C:\Program Files\Python\Python36" which is default location.

Rtools is installed under C:\Rtools, with mingw_64 (and 32 bit version) underneath.

PATH is set as "%PATH%;C:\Rtools\bin;C:\Rtools\mingw_64\bin"

configure.win file content is:

#!/bin/sh

echo 'PKG_LIBS=-LC:/Program Files/Python/Python36/libs -lpython36'  > src/makevars.win
echo 'PKG_CFLAGS=-I"C:/Program Files/Python/Python36/include"'     >> src/makevars.win

R version is 3.4.1

Install command:

install.packages("devtools")
library(devtools)
install("C:/DevApps/R/rPython")

Detail error message:

The output information is not very clear what it was trying to import? and why it was failed. How can I fix it?
