Category: Distutils and setup.py Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Anthony Baxter (anthonybaxter) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: distutils dry-run breaks when attempting to bytecompile Initial Comment: If you do a distutils --dry-run of an uninstalled package, it will break when it attempts to check if the non-installed .py file needs bytecompiling. The attached patch fixes this. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Martin v. L�wis (loewis) Date: 2005-01-29 15:35 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=21627 The patch is incomplete - it does not update the docstring. For symmetry with newer_group, it might be reasonable to support the same three arguments. Looking at the code, I find it unfortunate that it uses os.path.exists, causing a stat call, and then does another stat call to find the time stamp. Perhaps it would be possible to implement newer in terms of newer_group? newer_pairwise should then probably also allow propagation of the newer argument. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=305470&aid=1109658&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Patches mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/patches
