For example, `coverage-enable-subprocess` requires `COVERAGE_PROCESS_START=...` in order to start: https://github.com/bukzor/coverage_enable_subprocess/blob/9a0f4df99f0d008eba305c673dfae4269c6c5642/setup.py#L14 > I should have to start that package somehow. `pip install` is a pretty good opt-in already imo > Instead of just shipping "my_module.foo", you ship "my_module.py" and > "_my_module.foo", where "my_module.py" looks like: but that's exactly my point, now you have to ship extra junk python files when it's a way better experience to have the hooks _just work_ ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue33944> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
