My point of view is that this goes in the same pack of incompatibilities introduced by some distributions as splitting the install path (which we recommend to install as one block in /opt/pypy-1.9). It may be useful to do that according to some distribution-specific rules, but either you do it as a distribution hack and we don't care about it, or you try to come here and discuss more in details the problems that you have and how we could solve it together. As far as I know the __pycache__ is another example of distribution-specific hack that we were was not aware of. I don't think we are by principle necessarily completely opposed to it: whereas it still looks like a good idea to stick to CPython's behavior, failing that, if there are good reasons, the next best solution is probably to come with something that we can integrate into the "real" pypy, rather than keep on your own. If you don't, users complain here and you are just making us hate .pyc files even more. :-) A bientôt, Armin. _______________________________________________ pypy-dev mailing list pypy-dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pypy-dev
