While waiting, use your time constructively with the time-honoured debugging technique of "make the simplest example that shows the problem". In other words, try implementing a tiny project with distutils, and gradually work toward your problematic one, running distutils commands each time you make a change, until it produces the same problematic behaviour. Then, try simplifying it by removing things that don't seem to be related to the problem, until the problem stops happening. Repeat until you have the simplest implementation of the problem you can devise that you can't make simpler without losing the unexpected behaviour. Then, post that problem implementation here, with a description that will no doubt be improved by the above process. -- \ "Don't be afraid of missing opportunities.
