[New-bugs-announce] [issue30284] Build CPython out of tree with a read-only source tree

[STINNER Victor]

New submission from STINNER Victor:

I tried to build CPython out of the source tree with a customized read-only source tree (chmod -R -w). I got an error when running tests: tests want to write into a build/ directory... in the source tree.

Attached patch fixes this issue.
