New submission from Steve Thompson <steve.f.thomp...@gmail.com>: I'm running pythong 2.6.1 on Windows XP SP3.
On many occasions I have ran into cases where I've installed a new package via the package's setup.py (pylint, logilab-common, etc) and new .pyc files don't get generated when I attempt to run the tools/packages. I'm not sure if this should be considered a package issue or an interpreter issue. I'd like to see the interpreter regenerate the .pyc file as expected so my colleagues and I don't burn time on "broken" packages we know nothing about only to find out it was due to some stale .pyc files. A quick fix would be to make the packages in question clean out their installation directories or regenerate all the pyc files manually. How should this issue be handled? ---------- components: Interpreter Core, Windows messages: 115488 nosy: Steve.Thompson priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: stale .pyc files aren't cleaned out type: behavior versions: Python 2.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9761> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
