A lot of people have been frustrated with the lack of development on setuptools, which is partially do to the fact that Phillip has been busy with other (paid) projects, but also that he is really the only developer :) However, he has been allotting more time recently and plans to release 0.6 final release by the end of August.

Mark, that's great!  I hadn't realized that it was so close to
installable via easy_install.

It's less great that setuptools doesn't seem to have been released in
two years... does anyone (Eby?) know the rough timeline for the next
release?

And if not, I'll go back to plan C, and see if I can figure out a workaround :)

See also http://bugs.python.org/setuptools/issue18 - the short story is that
there is a fixed, but unreleased bug in setuptools that still prevents
things working 100%

Subject: [python-win32] pywin32 install via setuptools -- conclusion?



Hi,

I've got a module that relies on pywin32 being installed (to consume but not
create COM objects, and to respond to COM events).  My module installs with
easy_install, and I'd love to have its dependency graph automatically
install pywin32, or at least the bits important for COM object and event
consumption.

Is this possible?  I found a thread from last year to this effect, but the
outcome wasn't clear (at least to me).

Thanks!
Michael
