Advise against removing the remaining Python scripts from tests/run-make by Zalathar · Pull Request #129387 · rust-lang/rust (original) (raw)

After some recent PRs (e.g. #129185), there are only two Python scripts left in tests/run-make.

Having come so far, it's tempting to try to get rid of the remaining ones. But after trying that myself, I've come to the conclusion that it's not worth the extra hassle, especially if it means pulling in an XML-parsing crate just for one test.

This PR therefore leaves behind a few signpost comments to explain why getting rid of these particular scripts has low value.
