The specific question was "Is there a way to set the warning options via an environment variable?" This has nothing to do with beta1; the warnings module was introduced many releases ago, along with all the mechanics to disable warnings. >> but: why don't switch off the warnings >> in the code? > > We support installation from sources with the native Python if available.

I propose you put warnings.simplefilter() into your code. The warnings was introduced before 2.2.1 IIRC, so this should work on all releases you want to support (but have no effect on installations where the warning isn't generated).
