Issue 13975: packaging: change_root() test for os2 (original) (raw)

OS/2 is not supported by 3.3; someone said on python-dev they wanted to take over maintenance but they wanted to use a different compiler toolchain, which would effectively change the platform definition, so it’s not clear at this point that OS/2 support will continue. In this light, I’m rejecting your patch (with thanks for your work nonetheless), and will reopen if the situation change.

(I’ll remove the now-obsolete comment later.)
