I think your suggested workarounds are the right way to do it with the architecture of Setuptools. If you find yourself using the options frequently, remember that you can also put them into a ‘.pydistutils.cfg’ file (see the ‘distutils’ library documentation) in the ‘[easy_install]’ section. > How about provide an option to disable 'pypi'? The package maintainer might disagree with me, but I am going to presume that this wishlist report is to be closed as ‘wontfix’ because the existing options provide the functionality already. -- \ “I hope some animal never bores a hole in my head and lays its | `\ eggs in my brain, because later you might think you're having a | _o__) good idea but it's just eggs hatching.” —Jack Handey | Ben Finney <[email protected]>
