I've just fixed the bdist_wininst command in CVS. There is not much time left before the release of Python 2.2 (how much exactly?).

To make sure that the current version works correctly, I would kindly request some testers to build windows installers from some of their package distributions, and check them to make sure they work correctly.

The full story is in bug [#483982]: Python 2.2b2 bdist_wininst crashes: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=483982&group_id =5470&atid=105470

To test the new version, you only have to replace the file Lib/distutils/command/bdist_wininst.py in your Python 2.2 distribution with the new one from CVS (rev 1.27):

Thanks,
