New submission from Steve Dower <steve.do...@python.org>:
In future releases, we won't be advertising the web-based installers anymore. They never got much use, and the shorter list of downloads will be more beneficial to users than saving 10-20MB worth of bandwidth. The web site change has already been made, and depending on when RMs pick up the newer script might impact any future release. For 3.10, at least, we can stop producing and uploading the web-based installer. It won't hurt to keep doing it, and the *_pdb.msi and *_d.msi files will remain (as those are always download on demand), but it can eventually stop being produced (should just be in Tools/msi/buildrelease.bat, IIRC). ---------- assignee: steve.dower components: Build, Windows messages: 380859 nosy: paul.moore, steve.dower, tim.golden, zach.ware priority: low severity: normal status: open title: Skip building web installers on Windows versions: Python 3.10 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue42337> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
