fix(gazelle): fix module map for old-style namespaces - #4135
Merged
Conversation
The performance tweak in bazel-contrib#3415 which parallelized gazelle module map generation calls simplify() on wheels individually, which always results in entries which collapse to the highest level modules which contain __init__.py files. But when two wheels do old-style namespace packages by both including that file under their top-level module, they simplify down to the top-level module, clobber each other when merged, and wind up with one wheel getting mapped for the entire namespace. This causes bug bazel-contrib#3528. We fix this by deferring our call to simplify() until after we've merged all the wheels' module info. Fixes bazel-contrib#3528

There was a problem hiding this comment.
I can see that this is just code move and it makes sense, please add news/4135.fixed.md file describing what is fixed. I am happy to backport it to the current dot release.
