That's a system folder.

Any suggestions will be very helpful My suggestion is to ask somewhere else. This mailing list is for beginners looking for help with general aspects of Python. Your question is very specific and is about distutils, PyGraphViz and mingw32. I suggest that you contact either the author(s) of PyGraphViz or the distutils-sig mailing list: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig Oscar _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
