Actually I read your mail but honestly I found it confusing / it was not clear to me what you're aiming at. > Meanwhile, everything seems to be eggs and easy_install that conflict with > the overall system management aspects (and Linux Standards Base aspects) > of RPM. Can you elaborate this a bit more? What is 'everything'? Is it linked to Fedora or the fact that most projects publish eggs on their own? > I think that any changes to fix the Python distutils/setuptools for RPMs > will probably need to originate in the Fedora community. How do you think that should be fixed? What needs fixing? To me, the packaging situation in Python/Fedora is pretty good and I don't see much things that need fixing from Fedora point of view (besides setuptools/distribute). fs -- Felix Schwarz Dipl.-Informatiker Gubener Str. 38 10243 Berlin Germany www.schwarz.eu - software development and consulting _______________________________________________ python-devel mailing list python-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/python-devel
