Issue 993943: Unicode in distutils.core.setup() (original) (raw)

Logged In: YES user_id=89016

Testing this patch doesn't work for me, but this seems to be more a problem of the build process than of this patch. Updating to CVS head on Windows, compiling the pythoncore and python target in Visual C++ .net Standard (without applying the patch) and running a setup script with this python.exe gives me the following: \Python-current\dist\src\PCbuild\python setup.py bdist -- formats=wininst running bdist running bdist_wininst running build running build_py Traceback (most recent call last): File "setup.py", line 50, in ? package_dir={"ll": ""} File "D:\Python-current\dist\src\lib\distutils\core.py", line 150, in setup dist.run_commands() File "D:\Python-current\dist\src\lib\distutils\dist.py", line 951, in run_commands self.run_command(cmd) File "D:\Python-current\dist\src\lib\distutils\dist.py", line 971, in run_command cmd_obj.run() File "D:\Python- current\dist\src\lib\distutils\command\bdist.py", line 146, in run self.run_command(cmd_name) File "D:\Python-current\dist\src\lib\distutils\cmd.py", line 333, in run_command self.distribution.run_command(command) File "D:\Python-current\dist\src\lib\distutils\dist.py", line 971, in run_command cmd_obj.run() File "D:\Python- current\dist\src\lib\distutils\command\bdist_wininst.py", line 127, in run assert self.skip_build, "Should have already checked this" AssertionError: Should have already checked this

Walter, I cannot reproduce this behaviour, even with the ansistyle setup script. And you're the only one reporting this.

Do you have anything special (setup.cfg is the only on that comes to mind)? Do you get the same from the 'python setup.py bdist_wininst' command?

How does python-2.4a1 from python.org behave for you?
