I'm okay with what's in master now. On 01/05/2018 09:28 AM, Ian Bruene via devel wrote: > Embedding the paths directly into the python programs works great, in > all situations.

If a test step symlinks the ntp module into $PWD for whatever it tests, it works both before and after !615. If a test step prepends to PYTHONPATH in the environment for whatever it tests, I now concede it would work before !615 but break after !615. If a test step does neither of the above, it is broken before and after !615. In any other scenario, !615 is either a no-op or an improvement. I have written a relatively formal proof of the above if you disagree. !615 could be fixed for the middle case above, but would add more ugly code. !615 fixes multiple installs co-existing (which Gary said was important), but I don't particularly care to support that case, so I'm fine abandoning !615. -- Richard _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@ntpsec.org http://lists.ntpsec.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
