Berker Peksag added the comment: Again, this is not a distutils bug and it has already been reported to the setuptools maintainers: https://github.com/pypa/setuptools/issues/29
Quoting from the original report: > Currently setuptools.dist.Distribution passes the unfiltered collection > of keyword arguments up to distutils.core.Distribution. This results in > lots of scary looking "UserWarning" messages when you actually use the > setuptools-only options and see also: > It also makes it look like you're calling distutils rather than setuptools, > since the stack trace (showing that this is a call up into setuptools) > isn't visible. The setuptools maintainer replied (which he also maintains distutils): > Indeed, setuptools just passes the attributes through directly through to > Distribution. [...] And by the way, I saw your own report while doing a research on this. Quoting from https://github.com/pypa/setuptools/issues/906 > [...] So that way setuptools can fix this bug as the standard library devs > that manage distutils are too lazy to fix it themselves. Next time I suggest you to do a better research before starting to blame the core developers. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue29115> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
