Buck,

Is it possible a the PTFs were all python pip modules? IBM might have
wanted to bless a hundred modules or so as official by makingthem PTFs
instead of fhaving you install via "pip install" Most of the linux distos
do that for many perl and python modules.

Is there an easy way to go throughthe PTFs and list the stream files
installing them will create on the IFS?

The developerWorks wiki for Python has a new page for Python PTFs:

https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/wikis/home?lang=en#!/wiki/IBM%20i%20Technology%20Updates/page/Python%20PTFs

I see that there are some new ones, SI58191 - SI58195. So I ordered
them: SNDPTFORD PTFID((SI58191) (SI58192) (SI58193) (SI58194) (SI58195))

I was a bit surprised when I saw what looked like hundreds of PTFs for
V7R1M0 to be pulled down. When the SNDPTFORD had completed, I counted
the *SAVF objects which have V7R1M0 in the description and there are
more than 600 of them!

DSPPTFAPYI only shows the 5 PTFs I ordered plus a pre-req, SI58278.
LODPTF and APYPTF seemed to go fine. So I deleted all those 7.1 save
files. There were some for 5770-999, 5770-SS1, 5770-SC1, and 5770-SC1.

The LPAR seems fine but it sure is curious that it downloaded all that
7.1 stuff. CALL QP2TERM, python3 --version responds with 'Python
3.4.2', which is exactly the same as the LPAR without those PTFs so I'm
not sure I really got anything accomplished.
