That will still blow up with a NameError when the path doing the
logging is invoked.

How about:


def purgeAll(options, computer_name):
    cmd = "python purge_client.py %s" % computer_name
    if options.pretend != True:  # if not options.pretend (assuming it
is a bool)
        error = os.system(cmd)
        return not error

    _log.info("Done. No changes made due to --pretend flag.")
    return True
