Setuptools is not compatible with 3.x TTBOMK; distribute is, but could be fixed quickly, so there is no compat problem with this (these) library(ries). However, the public/private status of first_line_re is unclear, so there could be other projects out there depending on its type. Given that there is already one patch in distutils that uses surrogateescape, I think we could accept another similar patch. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10419> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
