Brett Cannon added the comment: So the reason Python does the right thing at install is because compileall is used by the Makefile to do the compilation and it's run twice (it actually doesn't use distutils for this).
My question is what did distutils do before PEP 488 since .pyc and .pyo files had different names before as well? Did distutils build both previously and so this is a regression? Or is this a feature request? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue27226> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
