I have the same feeling (although I'm a bit of hypocrite given the 7 binaries in .local/bin I have). This was the reason we pushed to have avocado build itself in a venv as part of the build system. I don't see meson can't do something similar if it has to (although the git submodule probably works just as well). > > thanks > -- PMM --=20 Alex Benn=C3=A9e
