It's not clear to me why the patch is necessary. If you reference a specific version of setuptools in your call to ez_setup(), the behavior is almost identical. The only difference is that if there is no setuptools installed, then the version you specified in your setup.py will be used for the installation. _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
