Martin Dengler added the comment: Is this state "closed" per https://mail.python.org/pipermail/distutils-sig/2013-October/022855.html or "languishing" per https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2012-March/117946.html ?
I would add a belated "me too" to the "2. Change 'Scripts' to 'bin'" part for consistency, but it seems that the decision has been that the consistency benefits don't outweigh the breakage. I would have thought that a directory junction (mklink /j Scripts bin) would have obviated the installer breakage concern in https://mail.python.org/pipermail/distutils-sig/2013-October/022855.html , especially given that wheels, which would not be subject to this concern, are coming along nicely. Is there any appetite to revisit this decision? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14302> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
