[14:35:00] <linovia_> I though the scripts directive in the setup.py would copy/paste the file instead of using an entry point but it doesn't seem to always be the case
[14:35:25] <linovia_> Is there a way I can make sure a given script is fully copied in the venv's bin directory during installation ?
[14:36:07] <linovia_> it works for one of my package but doesn't for the other (which looks like an entry point though I don't declare any)
[14:50:06] <linovia_> ok, as for my previous comment, the inconsistencies I'm getting is due to the way I install the package. python setup.py install gives an entry point like script while pip install will copy the full file
[15:00:45] <ronny> linovia_: is there any good reason for not using entrypoints?
[15:59:11] <linovia_> ronny: sure, mod_wsgi expects to find an application variable in the script it is given
[15:59:14] <linovia_> ronny: since I don't want to give the path to the site-packages, I declated the wsgi.py as script so that it is found in <venv>/bin/wsgi.py
[17:16:42] <ronny> linovia_: i tweeted at him asking why that does not exist, i suspect it might exist soon
[17:33:42] <linovia_> yeah, just saw your tweet. I'm looking forward his answer ;)
[21:51:23] <mitsuhiko> dstufft: maybe i misunderstand the lawsuit, but it sounds to me that if vmware loses this is really not very good for the linux ecosystem
[21:51:42] <mitsuhiko> some things are better left untested in my mind
[21:51:46] <dstufft> mitsuhiko: I don't know a ton about the lawsuit TBH
[21:51:55] <dstufft> I wasn't challenging what you said, I was just curious
[21:52:20] <mitsuhiko> the only way for vmware to comply with the gpl there would be to gpl license their own proprietary vm solution which has nothing to do with linux
[21:52:30] <mitsuhiko> which would be insane from a legal point of view
