The install.prefix_placeholder is `/opt/anaconda1anaconda2/anaconda3`, it does not have to be a python. However, all files for which the replacing has to be applied, need to be listed in `info/has_prefix`. See:...

+1 From a packaging perspective (and I'm not only talking about conda here), it is vastly better if each package has the ability to contain it's own config file (as...

Thank you for using bitarray and filing this issue! The described behavior is correct, i.e. then a bitarray is initialized with bytes and the leading one is the range 0x00...

@scott-griffiths I agree that it would be best to avoid `__init__` in the unpickling process completely. When looking at the Python standard library `array` module, I see an internal function...

@scott-griffiths I just created #207, which uses a reconstructor function and also explains the history and technical details. TL;DR: To allow a backwards compatibility transition, this issue (#206) can be...

Can you explain in more detail why this is a security issue? What do you mean by "other backdoored modules"? Thanks

Thank you for your interest in bitarray! When you say "table based decode" I assume that this implies a fixed length prefix. The reason I'm using a binary tree structure...

Thank for your using bitarray! I'm not too familiar with mypy myself, but it would indeed be nice if mypy or other type checker could reflect this. I just wrote...

What you are suggesting makes sense, as `frozenbitarray` is a subtype of `bitarray`. However, I still get the same error (I'm using the latest mypy 0.950). Let's see what the...

Thanks for your suggestion. I guess this means the `__setitem__` method should be able to take any iterable whose elements can be used as indicies. I don't think such a...
