New submission from Vinay Sajip <vinay_sa...@yahoo.co.uk>: In general it is possible for an installation to make certain system changes other than the record of files written during an installation (for example, under Windows, there may be distribution-specific Windows registry updates).
There seems to be no hook that's called when a distribution is removed, which would allow distribution-specific cleanup code to be called (e.g. to undo Windows registry changes). Such a hook should be provided. ---------- assignee: tarek components: Distutils2, Library (Lib) messages: 139230 nosy: alexis, eric.araujo, tarek, vinay.sajip priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: packaging does not have hooks callable during distribution removal type: feature request versions: Python 3.3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12416> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
