Ronald Oussoren <ronaldousso...@mac.com> added the comment: The --user directory for framework installs of python on OSX has changed from a subdirectory of ~/.local to a subdirectory ~/Library. As described in the NEWS file:
- Issue #8084: PEP 370 now conforms to system conventions for framework builds on MacOS X. That is, "python setup.py install --user" will install into "~/Library/Python/2.7" instead of "~/.local". In python 2.6 both ~/.local and ~/Library/Python were added to sys path and that's confusing. As ~/.local does not conform to the filesystem layout conventions on OSX the --user directory now always refers to ~/Library/Python. For classic unix installs --user still uses the unix conventions. I'm not 100% sure that that is the right choice. In other words: works as designed. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8759> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
