Better Cleanup #55

Closed claytondaley closed 8 years ago

claytondaley commented 9 years ago

rmvirtualenv is leaving straggler files in the root folder:

pip now creates a pip-selfcheck.json file in the virtualenv root
One (or more) packages are writing LICENSE and COPYRIGHT files to the virtualenv root

If the script doesn't clean up these files, it's left in a funky state where rmvirtualenv completes without removing the parent folder. This causes mkvirtualenv to think the env exists. Ultimately, we must remove the folder by hand to fix the issue.

@utek Can you re-upload the distributable to PyPi? The current version on PyPi does not have this change.

@cbdelavenne I will as soon I'll be on my windows box. Sorry for delay.
