Patrick Welche added the comment: No, I don't think you should close this, as you haven't explained what it is that you won't do.
I think that a sensible plan is to introduce a configure flag whose effect is to not install the files which cause the conflict. You set the default to always install the conflicting files, so the standard install of python gets to be the PY3LIBRARY. What this buys you, is that then you can also install another version of python 3 concurrently and easily. I just need to find a round tuit to write it... ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17975> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
