On both linux & OS X, Setuptools installs all .py/.pyc files with mode a+x (executable for all users). This occurs regardless of original the permissions in the source tarball. Doing so breaks nosetests, which by default refuses to import executable files for test-discovery purposes as a safety measure.
This behavior is broken & dangerous. -- Pete [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
