R. David Murray added the comment: Well, the fact that a syntax error can result in a "successful install" message is a bug *somewhere*, and like I said I've seen this before with pip (on linux, so this issue has nothing to do with windows).
I guess it's a distutils bug, and falls into that category I mentioned of packaging bugs "we" will work on in the future... ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue20846> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
