| """Quick and dirty debugging output for tired programmers. | | All output goes to /tmp/q, which you can watch with this shell command: | | tail -f /tmp/q | | If TMPDIR is set, the output goes to $TMPDIR/q. | | All output goes to /tmp/q, which you can watch with this shell command: | | tail -f /tmp/q So, this is junk code for debugging that says right in the description that it's dirty. Writing to a fixed string filename in /tmp, really. This certainly isn't production quality code. I don't think this is actually used in floss, it's in setup.py but there is no "import q". Can you just kill the dep instead?
