The problem is that the docs never say that MANIFEST is cross-platform, so I’m not sure changing this qualify for a bug fix. I have to find time to ask distutils-sig. See also my point 1) in my previous message: the tests don’t test anything on non-Windows. For d2 however we can change the MANIFEST format as we like. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue828450> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
