Windows has symlinks now I believe, you just have to turn them on. And I would say there is no need for alternative. If a package needs to do something funky they can do it in their __init__.py file. Otherwise if I don't import a package it shouldn't get to do anything crazy through a .pth file. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue33944> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
