Thanks for the patch Meador, I hadn’t realized we had no tests for py_compile
(it is however used in test_import and test_compileall). I think it would be
nice to commit the tests first (except for the one that’s the object of this
bug report) in order to have a baseline, and then see about fixing this bug.
I’ll do that in a few days if nobody objects.
I’m not sure there would be no negative side-effects to using os.path.abspath;
we don’t know what people do with symlinks and relative paths out there, so I’d
prefer adding a safe special case* rather than always calling abspath. What do
you think?
* Instead of using len, something like this would be clear IMO:
if parent: # empty string means current directory, skip creating the dir
os.makedirs(parent)
