About the zip utility: are you saying that the unix unzip command is not able to inspect or extract distutils sdists? About zipimport, the question is: are sdists meant to be directly importable (IMO no). That said, if it is a minor change with no downsides, I wouldn’t oppose it. I just wanted to be clear on the reasons / benefits. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue34738> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
