10/23/2015, 3:04 AMit's been awesome deleting config. i bet we have hundreds of unnecessary lines - l

10/23/2015, 3:04 AMI have a side repo set up. curl pants_setup and chmod and boom. compiles/tests. But it comes with a minimal pants.ini and BUILD.tools. - w

10/23/2015, 3:05 AM@limited-country-20626: yeah - not too bad, except scala not so, and thats a big use case, and python - although it works, does unacceptable things still - e

10/23/2015, 3:06 AMCertainly better though, I can with a fairly clean conscience ask for a repro repo in a bug report now - l

10/23/2015, 3:07 AMI was actually very pleased with how it all works, looking at it with fresh eyes. - e

10/23/2015, 3:07 AM@mammoth-autumn-2551: setup a few of these before the improvements and I felt pretty guilty - lots of work - l

10/23/2015, 3:08 AMIt has a major shortcoming I have not revisited - e
enough-analyst-54434
10/23/2015, 3:08 AMI respects your repos + indexes - but only for plugins - e
enough-analyst-54434
10/23/2015, 3:08 AMnot for the main artifact - e
enough-analyst-54434
10/23/2015, 3:09 AMI couldn't see a clean way to do that without replicating a bunch of logic in the bootstrap script - e

enough-analyst-54434
10/23/2015, 3:10 AMthat would hold the shared logic - e
enough-analyst-54434
10/23/2015, 3:10 AMsince we require python 2.7 anyway, maybe ok - w

10/23/2015, 3:10 AM@enough-analyst-54434: oh. so, had a thought about that yesterday. i know you're not down with pexes, but: we have both linux and osx CI machines. - e
enough-analyst-54434
10/23/2015, 3:11 AMI'm not down with supporting them for others - w

10/23/2015, 3:11 AMwell, it does address this issue. - e
enough-analyst-54434
10/23/2015, 3:11 AMwhat does? - w
witty-crayon-22786
10/23/2015, 3:11 AMif we build pexes, and then that's what the bootstrap script fetches, there is no post-fetch resolve. - w
witty-crayon-22786
10/23/2015, 3:12 AMand with xplatform ci machines, can build our own wheels for everything - w
witty-crayon-22786
10/23/2015, 3:12 AMmore work? less work? don't know - e
enough-analyst-54434
10/23/2015, 3:12 AMYes - it amounts to the same thing though since the pex would have to be a small one that doesn't use plat-specific deps - e
enough-analyst-54434
10/23/2015, 3:12 AMIts the same solution in a different spelling - w
witty-crayon-22786
10/23/2015, 3:12 AMer, no: because the pex can contain the platform specific wheels?
