[Python-Dev] PEP 376 - Open questions

[Paul Moore]

2009/7/7 Ben Finney <ben+python at benfinney.id.au>:
[... lots of interesting stuff deleted ...]
> I think it's not the developer's burden to decide *where* such files go;
> rather, they should be declaring only the *purpose* of these files in
> the distribution metadata, and it's up to the site-specific installer
> (possibly as configured by the installing user) to decide the location
> of each file by its declared purpose.

That's a whole different PEP, though.

Paul.
