Barry A. Warsaw <ba...@python.org> added the comment: Antoine, -P is fine with me!
Also, since my idea is that --usetmp/-P would just use the mkdtemp() algorithm (which looks for $TMPDIR, $TEMP or $TMP), getting the build into a subdirectory, e.g. /tmp/test_python would be as easy as setting TMP=/tmp/test_python. So I'm inclined to keep it real simple. I will add an atexit handler though to clean up under normal situations. Your right that if Python crashes you'll be left with file cruft, but if you're using --usetmp/-P you should know enough to look for that. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11677> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
