Can we formalize a way by which optional third-party libraries are allowed? Provided they aren't critical for the overall pass/fail state of the test suite (or the more strict alternative: pass/fail state of *each* test), I don't see any particular harm in certain site packages being used. (This is probably a discussion for python-dev, assuming the policy is written down somewhere.) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue34060> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
