Debian/Ubuntu packaging of Python works quite a bit differently. They do install-time byte-compilation, and they made modifications throughout the stack to make it as hard as possible to create a dependency on a specific minor version of Python. We do exactly the opposite (for VERY good reasons), and it's important to keep that in mind. Python performance improvement by nearly 30% is no joke, but we need to figure out how to account for non-standard builds before implementing it. -- 真実はいつも一つ！/ Always, there's only one truth! _______________________________________________ python-devel mailing list -- python-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/python-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
