I didn’t see if anyone already replied to your email Did you already try updating your Makefile or spec files with PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE https://docs.python.org/2/using/cmdline.html#envvar-PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE That env setting exists in python2 and python3.

At build time, I have 189 warning which leads to an error (badness >100) which is well deserved. Obviously I can hide the error with an %fdupes macro but I do not like it. Do we need all those duplication in the installed packages ? Could it be made a bit cleaner by the package owner ? Thanks. -- Dominig ar Foll Senior Software Architect Intel Open Source Technology Centre ....
