Łukasz Langa added the comment: If you're affected, there's a workaround. Use the following script to rewrite paths in your .zip file to be zipimport-compatible:
https://gist.github.com/ambv/909d38bdac4f3e719b7c It preserves the preamble and all file metadata. A little context why this is useful: for archives that are effectively "static" environments with entire dependency trees in them, this bug causes both a big slowdown in startup time (counted in seconds), as well as tens of megabytes of .pyc created on the fly. Examples include zipapp-style .pyz, Twitter's .pex or Facebook's .par. So while we're waiting for a new zipimport implementation, the workaround listed above should unblock people uzing this form of Python package distribution. ---------- nosy: +lukasz.langa _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue25710> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
