As discussed with tarek. It shouldn't be up to distutils2 to decide whether or not a Python file that has been included in the package should be installed or not if it is included in the set of files the developer has *asked* to be installed. Possible use cases include deliberately broken modules for testing or an ast-transformer import hook that works with otherwise-invalid syntax files. (e.g. transforming the with statement to work on Python 2.4) Allowing for the install of invalid syntax files will require ignoring SyntaxErrors during bytecode compile phase. A --strict option could be provided to allow these to remain an error. |

Config options are for when developers can't make decisions. Given that there are valid use cases please just allow it. A --strict option is fine... (but no-one will use it I suspect) |

> Config options are for when developers can't make decisions. I don’t understand. In packaging, a config file is central, as it contains the whole metadata, manifest and command options. > Given that there are valid use cases please just allow it. If this was not clear: I agree with the feature request. Or maybe you meant allowing it by default? |

Yes, allowing it by default. :-) |
