… would appear to show that nothing has changed, ie if you did make
the suggested alteration to the code, it wasn't made to the copy
that is actually running.
Looking at my /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/ (I don't have
speedtest.py installed), I picked a distinctively named file
at random:
$ locate unohelper.py
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/unohelper.py
$
That's the source code file. You might have edited a file like this.
But now I checked on:
$ locate unohelper
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/unohelper.py
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/__pycache__/unohelper.cpython-37.pyc
$
and you can see that there's a compiled version of this source file.
You might try hiding the file (don't remove it¹), and seeing whether
that forces python to use the source file. That is:
# mv -i /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/__pycache__/speedtest.cpython-37.pyc /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/__pycache__/speedtest.cpython-37.pyc-hide
assuming that such a file exists. (37 is buster's python version.)
¹ for a peaceful life, restore the filename so that APT doesn't
complain about it during future upgrades etc.
Cheers,
David.
