No otherwise, as normal users can't write there. That's why the .pyc and .pyo files are usually owned by the package, even though Python can recreate them. Most users don't have permission to write where they would go. Note that the file you cite next to the .py symlink is not used anymore and would not be recreated. It's just cruft from a previous version of Fedora that you upgraded away from, and may represent a packaging error. -- ____________________________________________________________________ TonyN.:' <mailto:tonynelson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> ' <http://www.georgeanelson.com/> -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
