Linking to the master blob was somewhat foolish as I've now come up with a solution and the original email is now ambiguous. So, to clarify, the problematic setup.py looked like this: https://github.com/robru/gottengeography/blob/4f452871e325152a52b6b0f5831bf7661ec6077f/setup.py My solution involved ripping out all of the install_data overrides and just directly executing what needed to be done. I'm not sure if this is particularly elegant or correct, but it works. I can't possibly be the only person alive who wants to use distutils to create internationalized/localized RPMs, so I'd appreciate the community's input on the correctness of my solution: https://github.com/robru/gottengeography/blob/b3588ca26041ad8da703c318eba757d111f2996d/setup.py -- http://exolucere.ca _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
