I'd rather avoid the runtime dependency just because of the need to have it on the live cd then. However, I could set it up to attempt to import setuptools, and then skip the version check if I can't import it. > We might want to investigate the addition of dependencies on setuptools to > mako and other python packages which deliver egg files. I should note that I don't deliver the egg files for Mako right now in the package. However, I have been following the conversation about simplejson on ARC, so it looks like I'll need to change that soon. I agree with you that they (the setuptools folks) were rather forceful about this. -- Shawn Walker _______________________________________________ pkg-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-discuss
