Comment (by felixs):

 Replying to [comment:1 nbruin]:
 > There's `edit` that relies on looked up files, but it seems to not care
 about whether a `py` or a `pyc` gets returned.

 So, the doctest should neither, right?

 > Note, by the way, that changing anything in `local/lib/python2.7/site-
 packages/sage/` is a really bad idea: those changes just get overwritten
 the next time the sage library is "installed" (built).

 I am aware of that, this was meant to conveniently demonstrate the
 inconsistency.

 (The mashed build/install routine is an artifact of a development
 unfriendly build system. There are alternatives, e.g. #14834)
