New issue 766: Use setuptools, not distutils https://bitbucket.org/pytest-dev/pytest/issue/766/use-setuptools-not-distutils
Thomas Güttler: It is very confusing for developers new to python if they read "you can use distutils or setuptools ...." https://pytest.org/latest/goodpractises.html#integrating-with-distutils-python-setup-py-test The future is setuptools. I think the best way for today: In the docs, just use setuptools. Don't even mention distutils, it confuses new users. And experts know what is (or was) going on. First step: Do you agree? If yes: next step: who is going to change the docs? _______________________________________________ pytest-commit mailing list pytest-commit@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pytest-commit
