Fails with:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/achrafmamdouh/GitHub/hera/dist/export/python/virtualenvs/python-default/3.12.7/__pants_codegen__/codegen_setup.py", line 15, in <module>
    os.rename(os.path.join(codegen_dir, item), os.path.join(site_packages_dir, item))
OSError: [Errno 66] Directory not empty: '/Users/achrafmamdouh/GitHub/hera/dist/export/python/virtualenvs/python-default/3.12.7/__pants_codegen__/google' -> '/Users/achrafmamdouh/GitHub/hera/dist/export/python/virtualenvs/python-default/3.12.7/lib/python3.12/site-packages/google'

Why is it failing? My protos depend on Google's well-known types & common types. Those protos are checked in into my codebase directly. All Google proto packages start with

google.

. That's why

pants

tries to export the generated code under

site-packages/google

. At the same time, I have many Google python 3rd deps which are also written under

site-packages/google

. Hence the conflict. The faulty line of code. pantsbuild/pants
