Nick Coghlan added the comment: I'm marking this as Python 3.7 only, not because I don't think it's a bug, but because getpath.c is a maintainability nightmare and I strongly prefer we avoid going anywhere near it in maintenance releases :)
Targeting Python 3.7+ also means we may be able to take advantage of the initial phase of PEP 432 changes and look at switching getpath.c to use higher level CPython data structures (specifically list objects) internally. I've also added the Windows folks to the nosy list to check if Windows might have a similar problem with semi-colons appearing in sys.prefix. ---------- nosy: +paul.moore, steve.dower, tim.golden, zach.ware versions: +Python 3.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue31210> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
