Steve Dower who knows well Windows installer discourage users to use MSI: https://discuss.python.org/t/remove-distutils-bdist-wininst-command/3115/14 Other pip developers want to get ride of everything but sdist and bdist_wheel formats: https://discuss.python.org/t/remove-distutils-bdist-wininst-command/3115/14 So let's deprecated bdist_msi. If someone comes with a use case which justify to keep the feature, it would be trivial to revert the deprecation. Thanks Hugo van Kemenade ;-) ---------- resolution: -> fixed stage: patch review -> resolved status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue39586> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
