Python packages much smaller if installed system-wide [solved]

Hi,

I opened an issue on pip's github: https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/3938 … -243430660

because I noticed something strange. If I install some libraries with pacman, let's say scipy and numpy (python-scipy, python-numpy) for example, the directories have a size of 44.6 MiB and 17.1, respectively.

When I install them with pip (pip install scipy, pip install numpy), they have a size of 159.7 MiB and 69.1 MiB (for the same versions, of course).

So, I would like to know if Archlinux does something to these packages.

I KNOW I use Manjaro Linux, but it is Arch-based and it's very unlikely these python packages differ from the ones in Archlinux repositories.

Dyou have any idea ?
