Hi, On behalf of the Distribute team, I am happy to release Distribute 0.6.9.
Important changes: * Distribute now works fine under some versions of MacPort Python that have a bug with the platform.mac_ver() API (see http://trac.macports.org/ticket/22278) * Fixed easy_install (the command) behavior w.r.t. a local setup.cfg * Now Sandbox can allow writing in some specific files (by default : os.devnull) Detailed Changes: * Issue 90: unknown setuptools version can be added in the working set * Issue 87: setupt.py doesn't try to convert distribute_setup.py anymore Initial Patch by arfrever. * Issue 89: added a side bar with a download link to the doc. * Issue 86: fixed missing sentence in pkg_resources doc. * Added a nicer error message when a DistributionNotFound is raised. * Issue 80: test_develop now works with Python 3.1 * Issue 93: upload_docs now works if there is an empty sub-directory. * Issue 70: exec bit on non-exec files * Issue 99: now the standalone easy_install command doesn't uses a "setup.cfg" if any exists in the working directory. It will use it only if triggered by ``install_requires`` from a setup.py call (install, develop, etc). * Issue 101: Allowing ``os.devnull`` in Sandbox * Issue 92: Fixed the "no eggs" found error with MacPort (platform.mac_ver() fails) * Issue 103: test_get_script_header_jython_workaround not run anymore under py3 with C or POSIX local. Contributed by Arfrever. * Issue 104: remvoved the assertion when the installation fails, with a nicer message for the end user. * Issue 100: making sure there's no SandboxViolation when the setup script patches setuptools.
