Please note that this distribution egg is a .zip archive that must be
installed via setuptools' easy_install script.
I thought setuptools distinguished between "bdist" and "bdist_egg"?
Yes, as stated in README, if setuptools is present, --bdist translates
into bdist_egg.
Both zip files, but bdist_egg is different somehow? I don't plan to
require setuptools on my target machines; instead, my installer just
unpacks the files in site-packages on the target machine.
From what I can see as a result on my mac, a distutils bdist archive
is not so useful. setuptools is your friend.
You can force the use of distutils over setuptools by using --use-
distutils with jcc.
Andi..
