Thanks for the suggestion, I've created an issue: https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/issue/134/spaces-in-file-names-make-it-impossible-to I'm not sure if there's a bitbucket-internal linking between issues and pull requests?

Probably yes, they would mind. ;-) I believe the reason there's a space there is so that the file is not importable. (It should never be imported; it's a data file rather than a python module.)

[Distutils] File names with spaces
Hello setuptools developers, I'm attempting to package the newest setuptools package on Solaris 9 and 10. One of the limitations of the Solaris package manager (the old one, pkgadd/pkgrm), is that it is unable to handle file names with spaces. Would you mind renaming "script template.py" to something like "script_template.py"?

[Distutils] File names with spaces
Hello setuptools developers, I'm attempting to package the newest setuptools version (1.1.6) on Solaris 9 and 10. One of the limitations of the Solaris package manager (the old one, pkgadd/pkgrm), is that it is unable to handle file names with spaces. Would you mind renaming "script template.py" to something like "script_template.py"? Maciej ___ Distutils-SIG maillist - Distutils-SIG@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
