Comment 2 for bug 1619560

I'm sorry, I'm not sure where the bug is: you've done something we don't support (used compileall to build a -O version of everything **and** removed the source), and as a result it doesn't work... don't do that.

Either leave the source code in place, or don't use .pyo seem to be very good approaches here.

Whats the actual use case you're trying to satisfy? I don't want to prevent a valid usecase being met, but as it stands this doesn't make sense to me as a bug.
