Pytest: config.fromdictargs applies the dictionary after the config object construction instead of

this results in inconsistent/strange behaviour wrt tmpdir, on more than 3 nodes
and inconsistent pluginmanager initialization

I see what you mean @RonnyPfannschmidt. I guess it is a simple fix: get_config receives an optional options dict which is forwarded to the Config constructor.

Do you plan to work on this? Feels like a good change to go into 3.0.

[RonnyPfannschmidt]

i took a initial look and this might turn bigger han expected to end with something thats correct instead of barely passing our tests

[nicoddemus]

Hmm OK, bummer. But do you still intend to work on it?

[RonnyPfannschmidt]

yes, but im not sure if it can make it into 3.0

i wonder if its ok to make it into 3.1

[nicoddemus]

I think going into 3.1 is fine, no need for 4.0 I mean

[RonnyPfannschmidt]

thats also my impression
