Description Frank Sweetser 2000-06-09 14:17:30 UTC

Since the python include files were byte compiled during rpm build time,
they contain references to the full paths of files - the buildroot path
instead of the actual path after install.  This causes some module loading
to fail.

Still present in beta 2.

Comment 2 Matt Wilson 2000-07-24 13:49:38 UTC

Exactly which modules?

Comment 3 Frank Sweetser 2000-08-04 23:17:57 UTC

All compiled files appear to have the problem - 'grep *.py[oc]' will give a list.

Comment 4 Matt Wilson 2000-08-05 01:38:57 UTC

That's unfixible, and isn't a big deal.
