FWIW, the approach I'm taking for the oneget provider is that, if there's more than one version of python into which you "can" install a package (the definition of "can install" is a bit hairy, but for right now it means the versions with wheels if there are any wheels), it'll print a message listing the installs you can use. You can then specify an install using -PythonVersion 3.4 or -PythonLocation c:\python34\python.exe. The -PythonVersion switch implicitly uses a wildcard compare (3.4.*) even though the wildcard is not specified. _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - Distutils-SIG@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
