New submission from Wolfgang Langner: The output for "python --help" for the option -B is wrong. It contains also the old pyo files. But they were removed. Output is: -B : don't write .py[co] files on import; also PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE=x should be: -B : don't write .pyc files on import; also PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE=x ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 289287 nosy: docs@python, tds333 priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Executable help output (--help) at commandline is wrong for option -B type: enhancement versions: Python 3.5, Python 3.6, Python 3.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue29770> _______________________________________
