As discussed elsewhere, we are looking at other ways to manage this. However, there is already an option to turn this off. When installing a python.org Python pkg from the macOS Installer app, at the fifth step, "Installation Type", there is a "Customize" button; clicking on that brings up a list of the installer's packages including "Shell profile updater"; just uncheck that before proceeding. If you are using the command line "installer" program, you can use its -showChoicesXML option to get the .pkg choices and modify it to disable the profile changes package. -- Ned Deily n...@python.org -- [] _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list -- python-dev@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-dev-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-dev.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-dev@python.org/message/PA47EBL45SZJ2JYFLR7XVUELC6ZPJ6GM/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
