Actually, it's 100% orthogonal, if done correctly. If anything, this slightly reduces the need for per-user site-packages, since in the new world, .pth files would generally only be needed for "develop" installs. (Assuming we find a way to support namespace packages without using .pth files, that is.) _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
