I have a slightly different interest in declining to install tests... Arch Linux provides the tests as a split subpackage with currently some hacky shell globbing to delete the tests after make install, then do a second libinstall and delete everything but the tests. It would be more convenient if we had a Makefile option to install the tests separately. It's now possible to disable installing tests with a filthy hack: make install TEST_MODULES= TESTSUBDIRS= However, it's not possible to similarly hack make libinstall LIBSUBDIRS= Because it installs some toplevel stuff, then runs lib2to3.pgen2.driver on the grammar that got skipped by the LIBSUBDIRS= hack. Thoughts on maybe splitting this up at install time? Would probably mean duplicating some of libinstall as testinstall... ---------- nosy: +eschwartz _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue27640> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
