Nick Coghlan <ncogh...@gmail.com> added the comment: In Python 3.2 and later, standalone .pyc files are no longer created as a side effect of import. Instead, cached files are stored in a __pycache__ subdirectory and ignored completely if the corresponding source file is no longer present. (Standalone .pyc files may still be created explicitly for sourceless Python distribution)
See PEP 3147 for details. Warnings for accidental use of standalone .pyc files will not be added to earlier versions, since there is no way for Python to tell the difference between accidental and deliberate use. ---------- resolution: -> out of date stage: -> committed/rejected status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13523> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
