Hello,
we are considering to add a %pycached macro to be used in the %files section:
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/python-rpm-macros/pull-request/37
We'd like to receive feedback. We plan to add it to rawhide and backport it to
all Fedoras + EPEL7+.
Usage:
%files
...
%pycached %{python3_sitelib}/foo.py
This will list:
/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/foo.py
/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/__pycache__/foo.cpython-38{,.opt-?}.pyc
Assuming the Python 3 version is 3.8.
The bytecode files are globbed, their presence is not checked.
This will fail:
%pycached %{python3_sitelib}/foo
error: %pycached can only be used with paths explicitly ending with .py
And so will any of this:
%pycached %{python3_sitelib}/*
%pycached %{python3_sitelib}/foo.*
%pycached %{python3_sitelib}/foo.p?
%pycached %{python3_sitelib}/foo.?y
%pycached %{python3_sitelib}/foo.??
But this will work:
%pycached %{python3_sitelib}/foo*.py
And it will generate the following globs:
/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/foo*.py
/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/__pycache__/foo*.cpython-38{,.opt-?}.pyc
When used with paths that include Python 3 version, it globs with the version:
%pycached /opt/python3.10/foo.py
Generates:
/opt/python3.10/foo.py
/opt/python3.10/__pycache__/foo.cpython-310{,.opt-?}.pyc
While paths without version have less strict globs:
%pycached /custom/foo.py
/custom/foo.py
/custom/__pycache__/foo.cpython-3*{,.opt-?}.pyc
This will generate a warning in RPM build:
warning: File listed twice: /custom/__pycache__/foo.cpython-38.opt-1.pyc
However it ensures the optimized bytecode is there.
