Only because it would be simpler if it did the same thing in both cases instead of doing different things. Why not?
I don't observe any misbehavior, but I haven't tried. I remember that py2exe used to have problems packaging Nevow because the version number that Nevow would generate during the packaging process would be determined by importing nevow, which would get a different version of nevow (from the sys.modules of the py2exe Python process) than the one that was being built and packaged. Inspecting this patch (but not trying it) I wonder if this code would have the same problem if used under py2exe in the absence of setuptools. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Divmod- dev, which is the registrant for nevow. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/812537 Title: build Nevow without importing Nevow Status in Divmod Nevow: New Bug description: This looks like a good patch: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~divmod-dev/divmod.org/build-nevow- without-importing-2699/revision/2601 But why do the execfile hack only when setuptools is present?
