Comment:
Hello Marcus, thank you for your report and for helping making Django
better.
I'm trying to triage this bug properly but I would like to understand a
few things before making any further decision:
* In the CPython thread, while they say that source-les imports are
supported, there seems to be a general pushback around it ("we
historically discourage them unless you have a pressing use-case", ".pyc-
only imports are CPython-specific", "that doesn't mean any 3rd party
packages or other tools support a source-less mode of operation"). You
affirmed that "this is an officially supported way of running cpython",
where do you read that exactly?
* While I can see a value and valid use cases for running Python in
embedded systems, I'm not sure there are use cases for running a Django
web server in an embedded system. Would you have examples for wanting to
run Django in a "minified" rootfs?
I'm trying to determine whether this report pertains to a specific need
arising from a niche use case or if it applies to the broader ecosystem.
Django is a framework designed to offer robust and accurate solutions for
common scenarios.
