4. The point of all this is that the definition of build_directory says "If build_directory is None, the backend may do an 'in place' build which modifies the source directory and may produce different results from those that would be obtained by exporting an sdist first".

Why should it care, as long as the end result is a clean wheel? -- Greg _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - Distutils-SIG@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
