Volker Weißmann <volker.weissm...@gmx.de> added the comment: "there is no good reason to do so" meant that there is no good reason to set PYTHONUSERBASE to non existing path or a path that is not a directory.
The history behind this bug report is that I used a program that, because of a bug in this program, set PYTHONUSERBASE to a non existing path, and I wondered why "import cython" raised a ModuleNotFoundError even though I had installed cython. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue40203> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
