[Tech Debt] Regression test for missing .pth file with python plugin
Metadata
Current evaluation
Closed with no recorded regression-test fix. The underlying missing-.pth bug was fixed by canonical/snapcraft#822 (66d6f7827), released in Snapcraft 2.18.1.
Resolution: closed stale
Reason: No resolving test commit, comment, or maintainer explanation was recorded, and the item saw no activity for years. The separate bug, canonical/snapcraft (launchpad)#1626668, was fixed by PR #822.
