Hi Hanno, If I find anymore issues I can post them to there instead of the mailing list.
Somebody should update the easy_install web site to direct users to post to the tracker and not to the mailing list. People are happy using Trackers and I'm starting to notice that bug reports posted to the distutils mailing list are probably being ignored at best. Being ignored in a tracker is an entirely different thing - haha David On Thu, 16 Jul 2009 19:28:07 +0200, Hanno Schlichting <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi there. > > As promised I have gone through the setuptools tracker and tried to > identify the easy and ready-to-apply patches.
