New submission from Zooko O'Whielacronx <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: If you follow the install instructions on http://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools/0.6c9#cygwin-mac-os-x-linux-other with Safari on Mac OS X, you will probably accidentally rename the egg to setuptools-0.6c9-py2.5.egg.sh, since Safari does that for you automatically without really pointing out what it is doing.
Then if you run it, it will say "./setuptools-0.6c9-py2.5.egg.sh is not the correct name for this egg file. Please rename it back to setuptools-0.6c9-py2.5.egg and try again.". Why does it matter what the name is? I ask because I don't want to advise my Macintosh users to follow the instructions at http://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools/0.6c9#cygwin-mac-os-x-linux-other if it is going to lead to these sorts of issues for them, and nor do I want to explain to them how to download a file without letting Safari rename it. ---------- messages: 200 nosy: zooko priority: bug status: unread title: "Please rename it back to setuptools-0.6c9-py2.5.egg and try again." _______________________________________________ Setuptools tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/setuptools/issue51> _______________________________________________ _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
