I'd like to add this issue: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2006-August/067869.html distutils version string should become static again This is part of a longer discussion we can have after 2.6 final is out, but for now, I would like to request that the change http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-checkins/2006-July/055139.html be backed out again before c1 gets released. In the above patch, the distutils version was made to dynamically depend on the Python version running the code, effectively making it impossible to query the true distutils version that is being used, bypassing the whole purpose of having static version in the code. I don't really see manually bumping the version number every now and then to be such a great issue and have also volunteered to take care of that in the future. -- Marc-Andre Lemburg eGenix.com Professional Python Services directly from the Source (#1, Aug 04 2006) >>> Python/Zope Consulting and Support ... http://www.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC.Zope.Database.Adapter ... http://zope.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC, mxDateTime, mxTextTools ... http://python.egenix.com/ ________________________________________________________________________ ::: Try mxODBC.Zope.DA for Windows,Linux,Solaris,FreeBSD for free ! :::: _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
