Distutils is not on the top of setuptools. It's the contrary. How do you expect a software to continue to work when its code base doesn't evolve anymore while the rest of the world it relies on evolves ? The last commit is 7 months old. Setuptools is also broken under Python 3, and this is not due to that change. Some people have tried to port it but failed. _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
