But why do we have to ship .pyc files as part of our binary rpms?
I'd rather ask why we have to ship *source code* (.py files) as part of our binary rpms ? They waste much more space since .py files usually include full documentation. https://hackweek.suse.com/15/projects/1244 showed that e.g. for Salt and its dependencies, stripping the source almost halved(!) the package size. From ~33 to ~18 MB.
