But the file that does it is in PYTHONPATH... which means it's not getting run during the test, which uses python -E. Argh. I've never seen a configuration that used (and needed) PYTHONPATH *and* sitecustomize *and* a site directory before. You're right, this configuration isn't really supported well. easy_install expects non-PYTHONPATH site dirs to be supported by Python itself, not by a PYTHONPATH dir causing the other one to be loaded. I'll have to see about a fix. _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - Distutils-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
