Ditto *.pyo if you intend to exclude them from python < 3.5 packages. Also, be careful with measuring space savings when working with *.pyo. It is a common case that *.pyc and *.pyo are identical, and when they are rpmbuild already hardlinks them. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
