The packaging.install.remove function (a.k.a. the uninstall feature)
takes a path argument to allow client code to use custom directories
instead of sys.path. The test used to give self.root_dir as path, which
corresponds to a prefix option, but prefix is not on sys.path, it’s only
the base directory used to compute the stdlib and site-packages
directory paths. The test now gives a valid site-packages path to the
function.
site_packages = self.get_path(dist, 'purelib')
return dist, site_packages
- def test_uninstall_unknow_distribution(self):
+ def test_uninstall_unknown_distribution(self):
+ dist, site_packages = self.install_dist('Foospam')
self.assertRaises(PackagingError, remove, 'Foo',
- paths=[self.root_dir])
+ paths=[site_packages])
def test_uninstall(self):
dist, site_packages = self.install_dist()
