From 414e9ae345c5372ece6699342f8afe8d2db107d0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Cleber Rosa Date: Thu, 15 Apr 2021 17:51:35 -0400 Subject: Acceptance tests: do not try to reuse packages from the system The premise behind the original behavior is that it would save people from downloading Avocado (and other dependencies) if already installed on the system. To be honest, I think it's extremely rare that the same versions described as dependencies will be available on most systems. But, the biggest motivations here are that: 1) Hacking on QEMU in the same system used to develop Avocado leads to confusion with regards to the exact bits that are being used; 2) Not reusing Python packages from system wide installations gives extra assurance that the same behavior will be seen from tests run on different machines; With regards to downloads, pip already caches the downloaded wheels and tarballs under ~/.cache/pip, so there should not be more than one download even if the venv is destroyed and recreated.
