Re: Double build failures



Hi list,

Le 04/05/2012 13:23, Sandro Tosi a écrit :
CPython upstreams are developing a new module to replace distutils and
setuptools: packaging. It might be worth check with them if it will
handle this case.

Can you explain what the problem is? (I never packaged something that uses setuptools.)

In distutils2/packaging, a dist-info directory is created (successor of the egg-info dir, see PEP 376) on installation, and it includes a file named RECORD with paths to installed files. The clean command only removes build by-products though, so it wouldn’t remove the dist-info dir by design (just as now it does not remove the egg-info file or dir).

Regards
