bsdtar.exe ? you shouldn't have to rename anything, it's probably the problem. I use myself cygwin under windows, and it works fine without any renaming. What was your traceback ? and what's your tar version ? $ tar --version Distutils uses tar like this, so it might be that "bsdtar.exe" doesn't work the same way.: $ tar.ex -cf dist\archive.tar built_dir Tarek _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - Distutils-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
