+Subject: [PATCH] Fixed failure to copy on platforms that use lib64
+
+The current behaviour attempts to copy a "lib" folder from the current directory, 
+instead of copying the "lib" folder inside the virtualenv. Therefore the copying would fail.
+This fixes that by always copying the "lib" folder from the virtualenv.
