#14844 closed defect (invalid)

Optional Python stdlib modules should install into lib-dynload and not site-packages

Component: ports Version: 1.6.0

Port: python25

Description

Things like _hashlib.so should go into lib-dynload/ and not site-packages/, right? site-packages/ is generally reserved for user installed modules, not stdlib stuff (optional ones or not). It's a small edge case, but can be confusing to some people.

I wrote up why I noticed this and the issue it caused me here: http://lists.macosforge.org/pipermail/macports-users/2008-March/009685.html

This is no longer an issue as the standard modules are now part of the python25 port (see #12369).
