Not sure the proper place to discuss this but I wonder if putting this stdlib module names list in the executable is the best idea. The list of available stdlib modules could change after compiling Python. I understand you don't want to dynamically crawl the library path the build the list. That's too slow. However, is there a really strong reason to embed it in the Python executable? Did you consider generating a .py module, containing the list. E.g. "_stdlib_modules.py" inside the lib folder. Then, you can have site.py or some similar startup logic import that module and assign it to sys.stdlib_module_names. ---------- nosy: +nascheme _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue43445> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
