Since
google
is a Python namespace package, thegoogle/__init__.py
file should be omitted to avoid collisions. For example, its presence
may cause other Pip packages in the google namespace not to be found.
This change narrows which
__init__.py
files are included in the//:protobuf_runtime
target to include only those undergoogle/protobuf
. It also moves their canonical inclusion to theinternal
//:python_srcs
rule, eliminating the dual specification inpython_protobuf.extra_srcs
.This is the difference in files, lexicographically ordered:
This seems like a desirable change, since it avoids polluting other
packages, too.
This is conceptually similar to #7877, but for Bazel.
