Oh, certainly it's useful for someone running the commands interactively: $ python ./setup.py --cover-html But not set in the configuration for the package for all builds (even non-interactive builds), which is what this bug report is for. The ‘setup.cfg’ for a distribution should only set those options which make sense for *every* ‘./setup.py’ invocation of that distribution <URL:http://docs.python.org/2/distutils/configfile.html>, letting the user choose other options on a per-run basis. -- \ “My mind is incapable of conceiving such a thing as a soul.
