From what I've seen your real complaints have all been with the ez_setup behavior, and not setuptools itself. It's ez_setup that requires an internet connection so that it can bootstrap setuptools if it's not already installed. Setuptools only requires a connection if you want to use the dependency feature. So, from what I can tell your problems should have been fixed with a 2-line change to remove ez_setup from setup.py. If you prefer to stick with distutils, that's fine, but don't give up on setuptools just because of ez_setup. -- Matt --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
