[cclib-devel] should we install unittests

[Karol M. L. <kar...@gm...>]

Dear cclibers,

While working towards the cclib debian packages, a question came up
concerning whether the unittests should be packaged or not. Basically,
the user does not need them, right? If not, then I suppose we should
also not be installing them by default.

What do you think?

There's no need for them to be packaged certainly. But I see no real
problem with installing them (and everytime I try to change the
installer, I break something!).

Noel,

I think it would be more reasonable to NOT install them in setup.py
by default. I can take it upon myself to change this by adding an
option. Is --install-tests is OK?

If you really want, but can you check that it installs correctly from
a source distribution made after running manifest.py?
