The following patch clears it up on the machine I bisected on.
No, that uses the installed ntp module, not the one being tested.
pypath = destdir + ctx.env.PYTHONARCHDIR # + os.sep + 'ntp'
- env = {'PYTHONPATH': pypath} if destdir != '/' else {}
+ env = {'PYTHONPATH': pypath}
You do NOT want to use the module in destdir.
I thought I wanted to use the module in DESTDIR. To find install issues
before the ground drops out under me. Given that you know better, I will
not interfere with your rewrite.
While having some form of post-install testing would definitely be useful,
the normal testing is intended to be used *before* installing. In
addition, the purpose of DESTDIR is to allow "installing" the code to a
temporary area for packaging purposes, and code in general isn't required
to function correctly in the DESTDIR location at all.
