+1. Addressing this by insisting on ‘python -m foo’ is not a solution. It's a plaster over a problem that will remain until the underlying conflict is resolved. That's not to say PyPA should ignore the issue, certainly there are things that can be done to help. But ‘python -m foo’ is an ugly wart, and I really want the rhetoric to acknowledge that instead of considering it a satisfactory end point. -- \ “We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used | `\ when we created them.” —Albert Einstein | _o__) | Ben Finney _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - Distutils-SIG@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
