[issue9809] Wrong Registery Entries on win64

2010-09-12 Thread Martin v . Löwis 

Martin v. Löwis mar...@v.loewis.de added the comment:

As Brian explains: if you want the Wow6432 entries, install the 32-bit Python - 
which will install just fine on your 64-bit system, and is, in many cases, the 
better choice.

[issue9809] Wrong Registery Entries on win64

2010-09-09 Thread Brian Curtin 

Brian Curtin cur...@acm.org added the comment:

Wow6432Node registry entries are for applications running WOW - aka 32-bit 
applications on a 64-bit platform. The 64-bit Python installer is placing its 
entries in the appropriate location.

See the winreg documentation for information that might help fixing this 
setuptools bug, in particular this section: 
http://docs.python.org/py3k/library/winreg#bit-specific

[issue9809] Wrong Registery Entries on win64

2010-09-08 Thread GreY FoX 

New submission from GreY FoX greyfox...@gmail.com:

Priority:  3 Keywords:  6

well python on installation on win64 adds the following registry keys:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Python]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Python\PythonCore]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Python\PythonCore\2.7]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Python\PythonCore\2.7\Help]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Python\PythonCore\2.7\Help\Main Python 
Documentation]
@=C:\\Python27\\Doc\\python27.chm

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Python\PythonCore\2.7\InstallPath]
@=C:\\Python27\\

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Python\PythonCore\2.7\InstallPath\InstallGroup]
@=Python 2.7

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Python\PythonCore\2.7\Modules]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Python\PythonCore\2.7\PythonPath]
@=C:\\Python27\\Lib;C:\\Python27\\DLLs;C:\\Python27\\Lib\\lib-tk



but to be found by the programs searching for it it should be:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Python]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Python\PythonCore]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Python\PythonCore\2.7]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Python\PythonCore\2.7\Help]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Python\PythonCore\2.7\Help\Main Python 
Documentation]
@=C:\\Python27\\Doc\\python27.chm

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Python\PythonCore\2.7\InstallPath]
@=C:\\Python27\\

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Python\PythonCore\2.7\InstallPath\InstallGroup]
@=Python 2.7

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Python\PythonCore\2.7\Modules]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Python\PythonCore\2.7\PythonPath]
@=C:\\Python27\\Lib;C:\\Python27\\DLLs;C:\\Python27\\Lib\\lib-tk



this would fix the installer of the setuptools
thanks
