This is a known bug and not an easy one to fix, which is a big part of why it's not fixed yet. :( >2. For my setup I need customize 'install_scripts' and 'install_data' >commands.

I think you should post your actual code here. As far as I can tell, setuptools installs the setup_requires eggs before any configuration parsing can happen. I would suspect something is wrong with either your setup_requires or your "lazily-populated dictlike object". _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - Distutils-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
