Hi,

As far as I have experienced, our bob packages are not zip-safe. More info about zip-safe:
https://pythonhosted.org/setuptools/setuptools.html#setting-the-zip-safe-flag

Since I have not developed any of the packages, I am not sure.
I have started adding the "zip_safe=False" flag into packages that do not compile on conda.
I think the rest of the packages which compile fine, they compile fine since their zip-safe flag is determined automatically to be False.

However, if you know your package is not zip-safe, please add the zip-safe flag to it.
If someone could explain further why our packages are not zip-safe too, I would appreciate it.

Thanks,
Amir
