Summary : Debug version of the Python runtime
URL : https://www.python.org/
License : Python
Description : python38-debug provides a version of the Python runtime with numerous debugging
: features enabled, aimed at advanced Python users such as developers of Python
: extension modules.
:
: This version uses more memory and will be slower than the regular Python build,
: but is useful for tracking down reference-counting issues and other bugs.
:
: The debug build shares installation directories with the standard Python
: runtime. Python modules -- source (.py), bytecode (.pyc), and C-API extensions
: (.cpython*.so) -- are compatible between this and the standard version
: of Python.
:
: The debug runtime additionally supports debug builds of C-API extensions
: (with the "d" ABI flag) for debugging issues in those extensions.
