Do we need to inherit > something from setuptools? I think there are 2 options:
1) upgrade to the nascent stdeb 0.4. It doesn't call setup.py with the --single-version-externally-managed argument. 2) inherit from setuptools' install command. I would suggest option 1. If you need me to make a release, I'm happy to do so -- but maybe that will be better after it has bdist_deb? :) -Andrew _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - Distutils-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
