New submission from Chris Angelico: Having matplotlib installed globally causes test_site to fail, due to the .pth file importing types. The point of the test is to monitor startup dependencies (and thus time) for the core interpreter and standard library, not third-party libraries, so having a test failure due to a .pth is not overly useful.
Solution suggested by Steve Dower: hack out all .pth handling during this one test, leaving everything else unchanged. ---------- components: Tests messages: 273160 nosy: Rosuav priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Prevent site-packages .pth files from causing test_site failure type: behavior versions: Python 3.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue27807> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
