STINNER Victor added the comment: I suggest to wait until sys.settrace() supports bytecode level tracing, then rewrite lltrace on top of it, open a new issue to remove C lltrace and close this issue. You need to write to python-dev if you want to remove the current C lltrace. -- ___

Stéphane Wirtel added the comment: @gwk no problem for a review of your patch @haypo as discussed before, maybe we could remove the lltrace feature because this one is never used by the developers. or we could ask on @python-dev ML. If there is a better solution and this one could replace the
