Not at the moment, no. However, you could subclass easy_install and override the 'run_setup()' method to edit the setup.cfg first. The setuptools.command.setopt module includes some nice routines for editing setup.cfg files, so that you won't even overwrite settings you don't care about. _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
