       -h, --help
              show this help message and exit

       -f, --force
              force rebuild of byte-code files even if timestamps are up-to-date

       -O     byte-compile to .pyo files

       -q, --quiet
              be quiet

       -v, --verbose
              turn verbose mode on

       -p PACKAGE, --package=PACKAGE
              specify Debian package name whose files should be bytecompiled

       -V VRANGE
              force  private  modules  to be bytecompiled with Python 3 version from given range,
              regardless of the default Python 3 version in the system. If  there  are  no  other
              options,  bytecompile all public modules for installed Python 3 versions that match
              given range.  VERSION_RANGE examples:

                 · 3.1    version 3.1 only,

                 · 3.1-   version 3.1 or newer,

                 · 3.1-3.3        version 3.1 or 3.2,

                 · -4.0   all supported 3.X versions

       -X REGEXPR, --exclude=REGEXPR
              exclude items that match given REGEXPR. You may use this option multiple  times  to
              build up a list of things to exclude
