Dual-Root Mismatch in RustPython:
Unlike CPython, RustPython manages the standard library
in two separate locations in the workspace:
- Workspace 'Lib/': Contains the test suite ('Lib/test/...') and
standard library files.
- crates/pylib/Lib/: A helper directory used for packaging.
'crates/pylib/Lib' is a symlink pointing to the real workspace '../../Lib/'.
Runtime Directory Discrepancy:
- 'sys.path' contains 'crates/pylib/Lib' (the path to the symlink).
- Thus, when 'test.support' is imported, its '__file__' is resolved relative
to the symlink: '/opt/RustPython/crates/pylib/Lib/test/support/__init__.py'.
- Consequently, 'STDLIB_DIR' resolves to the symlink root:
'/opt/RustPython/crates/pylib/Lib'.
- However, since 'test_program.py' is executed directly from the workspace,
its 'pkg_dir' is: '/opt/RustPython/Lib/test/test_unittest/testmock'.
- When 'os.path.relpath(pkg_dir, top_dir)' is called:
---
os.path.relpath(
"/opt/RustPython/Lib/test/test_unittest/testmock",
"/opt/RustPython/crates/pylib/Lib"
)
# Result: "../../../Lib/test/test_unittest/testmock"
---
Because the relative path starts with '..', the assertion fails.

This directory contains all of the Python files that make up the standard
library for RustPython.
Most of these files are copied over from the CPython repository (the 3.7
branch), with slight modifications to allow them to work under RustPython. The
current goal is to complete the standard library with as few modifications as
possible. Current modifications are just temporary workarounds for bugs/missing
feature within the RustPython implementation.
The first big module we are targeting is unittest, so we can leverage the
CPython test suite.
