Éric Araujo added the comment: This bug is quite bad, and was reported as far back as 2005 on distutils-sig. If one runs “python setup.py build_ext --inplace build”, then for example runs tests, and then “python setup.py install” runs build again, which runs build_py (.py files are already in the build directory, do nothing) then build_ext (.so files are not in the build directory: build them), so extensions modules are installed. But if one has “[build_ext] inplace=1” in the setup.cfg, then the .so files will not be recompiled and not installed.
It would be interesting to test if bdist_wheel is affected, as bdist commands use the install command under the hood. ---------- assignee: tarek -> eric.araujo components: -Distutils2 versions: +Python 3.4 -3rd party, Python 3.2 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5977> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
