Hey Xuebing, Apologies for the late response. Short version: please checkout this PR https://github.com/openwrt/packages/pull/4130 I am hoping you can backport these changes to OpenWrt CC 15.05
I've managed to package Python & Python3 with .pyc bytecodes. And it seems to work fine. I tested with mpc85xx & x86_64, but please come back with a reply if it does not work for you and I can investigate. Maybe it's different for your architecture. That PR may be a bit more than you need, since it splits Python packages into Python Source packages and Python packages [ which now ship with .pyc files ]. Funny story: I was approached about another user about this, but he was happy with just using `python -m compileall` I tested both Python & Python3 versions. All looked good from what I could tell. Also, please notice anything in that PR that you could use to save some space on your flash device. I noticed that packages were shipping with test files ; I removed them. Hope this helps.
