In my experience setuptools creatas issues in 90% of the cases where we used it, also it adds an extra dependency. It becomes even worse if it's used together with the ez_* stuff, chances are good that it'll download stuff from the net while building your package.... So What I'm doing these days is to replace setuptools by distutils whenever I see it, it saved my nerves often enough.... -- Bernd Zeimetz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bzed.de/> _______________________________________________ Python-modules-team mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/python-modules-team
