Paul Winkler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: The attached patch implements a command-line option to disable loading of $HOME/.pydistutils.cfg.
After talking to Martin Loewis, I decided not to implement the override part, because if it's a one-time thing you can just pass the settings on the command line; and if you have two configurations you want to use frequently, you can just use two user accounts. The hard part was writing tests, since the existing code was untested and is environment-sensitive. See the comments in the patch re. what I still don't like about it. I would like to have a less evil test setup and teardown, but I'm going on vacation tomorrow so I won't be able to look at this again until April. ---------- keywords: +patch Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file9762/python_distutils_1180.patch __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1180> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
