Ouch. I'll investigate further - there might be a bug to file > against zope.testing. Why does the test runner delete .pyc files in directories it doesn't own ? .pyc files only change if you upgrade to a new Python version, so there doesn't seem to be a need for removing them in the first place. Python is also smart enough to detect updated .py files and regenerate .pyc files from them automatically (.pyc files have a timestamp builtin). -- Marc-Andre Lemburg eGenix.com Professional Python Services directly from the Source (#1, Oct 13 2006) >>> Python/Zope Consulting and Support ... http://www.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC.Zope.Database.Adapter ... http://zope.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC, mxDateTime, mxTextTools ... http://python.egenix.com/ ________________________________________________________________________ ::: Try mxODBC.Zope.DA for Windows,Linux,Solaris,FreeBSD for free ! ::::
