Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Library (Lib) Group: Python 2.4 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Rich Burridge (richburridge) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: vendor-packages directory. Initial Comment: Python needs a .../python2.x.y/vendor-packages directory for vendor supplied Python files. See: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/2005-September/300029.html for the full reasoning behind this request. I also approached Guido w.r.t. this. Here's his reply. Subject: Re: Python vendor-packages directory in a future Python release? Date: Tue, 20 Sep 2005 19:48:40 -0700 From: Guido van Rossum <guido at python.org> Reply-To: Guido van Rossum <guido at python.org> To: Rich Burridge <Rich.Burridge at Sun.COM> References: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I think that's a reasonable request. (In the mean time, I think that using site-packages is fine as an interim solution.) I suggest that you use the SourceForge patch manager for the Python project to upload your patch, and then post to python-dev. You may be asked to review 5 other patches in order to have someone look at your favorite patch. --Guido ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=305470&aid=1298835&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Patches mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/patches
