New submission from David Ripton: Python 3.0a2, Gentoo Linux, x86
"make altinstall" installs idle, pydoc, and smtpd.py This can partially break the previous Python install, which is counter to the idea of altinstall being safe to use in parallel with an existing install of a different version of Python. IMO altinstall should install no files that lack a version number somewhere in their path. I suggest having altinstall simply not install pydoc, idle, and smtpd.py. ---------- components: Build messages: 58437 nosy: dripton severity: minor status: open title: "make altinstall" installs pydoc, idle, smtpd.py type: behavior versions: Python 3.0 __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1590> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
