Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Distutils Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: John Levon (movement) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: distutils home scheme lacks python versioning Initial Comment: The "home scheme", as described here: http://docs.python.org/inst/alt-install-windows.html seems to be broken: no version suffix is appended, yet .pyc files are not guaranteed across Python revisions. Thus, breakage can occur. This is quite annoying, as an OS vendor often would like to install stuff into /usr/lib/python2.x/ (not using vendor-packages). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Martin v. Löwis (loewis) Date: 2006-09-10 02:13 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=21627 I fail to see the problem. Can you please provide a scenario where breakage does occur (instead of merely suggesting that it "can occur")? What is the specific error message that you get? Also, what does that have to do with OS vendors? They shouldn't use the home scheme. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1545658&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
