[issue7283] test_site failure when .local/lib/pythonX.Y/site-packages hasn't been created yet

It seems like the original bug report was fixed, so I close it.

@Berker Peksag: Please open a new bug report if you see again the PermissionError error on Windows. I didn't see it recently.


> Well, I'm not sure the symlink is actually the problem. Apparently the ".local" directory hadn't been created when the first test run.

I'm unable to reproduce this bug anymore. I named ~/.local to ~/.local.xxx: test_site pass (it starts by creating ~/.local/lib/python3.7/site-packages).

> I can't reproduce this locally. If remove ~/.local/lib/pythonX.Y and run test_site, it creates the directory and modifies sys.path (this is a bug).

I fixed this bug: commit b85c136903c6d2368162f7c4a58f258c9c69ead0, issue #30108.

> I just saw a similar failure on AppVeyor: FAIL: test_s_option (test.test_site.HelperFunctionsTests)

test_site failed twice. First run:

The first failures are unrelated to this bug report. The first failure (PermissionError: [WinError 32] The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process) seems like an antivirus holding the file open. Please open a different bug report if you see it again.
