Éric Araujo added the comment: I had the same reasoning as RDM when I worked on byte-compilation in distutils2: https://hg.python.org/distutils2/rev/7c0a88497b5c
Using py_compile or compileall means that you want to create pyc or pyo files. Defining PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE or -B means that you don’t want the Python interpreter to byte-compile module as a side-effect of importing them. These two things seem orthogonal to me. ---------- nosy: +eric.araujo _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue25303> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
