---
minor_changes:
- The apt, ec2_elb_lb, elb_classic_lb, and unarchive modules have been ported
  away from using __file__.  This is futureproofing as__file__ won't work if we
  switch to using python -m to invoke modules in the future or if we figure out
  a way to make a module never touch disk for pipelining purposes.
Port modules away from __file__ * __file__ won't work if we want to invoke modules via -m or if we figure out how to keep modules from hitting the disk with pipelining. * module.tmpdir is the new way to place a file where it will be cleaned automatically. Change format string to not depend on __file__: * cloud/amazon/ec2_elb_lb.py * cloud/amazon/elb_classic_lb.py Use module.tempdir: * packaging/os/apt.py * files/unarchive.py 2018-06-20 15:35:27 +02:00			`---`
