I expanded the patch from tebeka to also work with invocations like `python3 -m serial.tools.miniterm` where `miniterm.py` is a file and not a directory with a `__main__.py`. This was able to handle everything I threw at it. However due to the import of zipfile which itself imports binascii the build of CPython itself fails at the `sharedmods` stage... ```text CC='gcc -pthread' LDSHARED='gcc -pthread -shared ' OPT='-DNDEBUG -g -fwrapv -O3 -Wall' _TCLTK_INCLUDES='' _TCLTK_LIBS='' ./python -E ./setup.py build Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/septatrix/Documents/programming/cpython/./setup.py", line 3, in <module> import argparse ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/home/septatrix/Documents/programming/cpython/Lib/argparse.py", line 93, in <module> from zipfile import is_zipfile as _is_zipfile ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/home/septatrix/Documents/programming/cpython/Lib/zipfile.py", line 6, in <module> import binascii ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'binascii' make: *** [Makefile:639: sharedmods] Error 1 ``` I guess this is because binascii is a c module and not yet build at that point in time. Does anyone who knows more about the build system have an idea how to resolve this? --- Resolving this bug would also allow the removal of several workarounds for this in the stdlib: * https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/83d1430ee5b8008631e7f2a75447e740eed065c1/Lib/unittest/__main__.py#L4 * https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/83d1430ee5b8008631e7f2a75447e740eed065c1/Lib/json/tool.py#L19 * https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/83d1430ee5b8008631e7f2a75447e740eed065c1/Lib/venv/__init__.py#L426 ---------- Added file: https://bugs.python.org/file50174/patch.diff _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue22240> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
