When running test-case gdb.python/py-startup-opt.exp with empty
PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE:
...
$ cd build/gdb/testsuite
$ PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE= make check \
RUNTESTFLAGS=gdb.python/py-startup-opt.exp
...
I get:
...
end^M
dont_write_bytecode is off^M
(gdb) FAIL: $exp: attr=dont_write_bytecode: testname: input 6: end
...
The problem is that the test-case expects dont_write_bytecode to be
on, which is incorrect because PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE only has effect if set
to a non-empty string [1].
Fix this by correctly setting expectations in the test-case.
Tested on x86_64-linux, with:
- PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE=
- PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE=1
- unset PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE
