Hey Ross,

I believe that if we want to go with this approach we would need to add these packages as "special_packages" on the manifest script, that way the script will simply avoid checking dependencies for them and will pass them without modifications, this will also cause these packages to appear earlier on the list, it does require some tweaking because directories such as lib/python/email shouldnt be on the email package itself, so we would need to take out such directories from the packages and rerun the script, that will repopulate the email package (ad others) correctly  with the files needed instead of the directory, but to be quite honest it might be easier to go with the first approach and delete such files on do_install()


Cheers,

Alejandro

Gave this a go and annoyingly the manifest generation must sort the
list because the glob works for everything apart from packages after
tests alphabetically, so the tkinter and unittest tests don't get
moved.

I guess we could change the manifest to put the tests package at the
top of the list, and be sure to respect the order when generating the
lists.
