[issue1011113] Make “install” find the build_base directory

[Steve Dower]

Steve Dower  added the comment:

Distutils is now deprecated (see PEP 632) and all tagged issues are being 
closed. From now until removal, only release blocking issues will be considered 
for distutils.

If this issue does not relate to distutils, please remove the component and 
reopen it. If you believe it still requires a fix, most likely the issue should 
be re-reported at https://github.com/pypa/setuptools

This issue is 15 years old and has 3 patches: it's far from being "newcomer 
friendly", I remove the "Easy" label.

Sean McCully added the comment:

Please advise any changes that need to be made, this is technically my second 
patch submission to cpython. I also had trouble running the unittests when 
backporting to 2.7.

Look at distutils, there wasn't a clear method for linking commands to share 
common options. This led to the solution provided which searches command 
options provided (via command line or configuration) for any shared options 
between command being ran and commands specified.

Patch for Python 3.4 attached.

Éric Araujo added the comment:

In my previous message I meant that I agreed with the original request, i.e. 
add --build-base to install.  I will probably never have the time to write a 
patch.

[issue1011113] Make “install” find the build_base directory

[Éric Araujo]

Éric Araujo mer...@netwok.org added the comment:

I’ve found a distutils commit that shows that this option was removed on 
purpose, because people might except that using “install -b foo” would affect 
the build command, but it does not.  I don’t think it’s a problem.  For people 
who run build and install in separate steps, it should be possible to say 
“build -b spam” and then “install -b spam”.
