I think I misunderstood what the fix is doing. I totally agree with Fabian. Maybe that wasn't clear from my earlier mails but this is the only place I have sklearn and I want to keep it that way! As I said, I don't have multiple versions and the only thing that fails is sklearn.test(). I don't want to be warned when I import from the source dir. I want the test to work in the source dir - and if that is not possible, it should raise an error. A warning when running the test will not be visible as there are so many warnings and errors showing up. Also, as I said in the PR, the PR didn't fix my issue ;) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Ridiculously easy VDI.
