New submission from Tarek Ziadé <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: When calling run_setup, the execfile does not set the __file__ global variable, that is often used in setup.py modules (for instance to load a text file from the package to be used in the long_description)
This patch adds this global variable so it does not fail. No test provided (distutils would need a test_core.py). I could work on some tests, but the previous test_* files I have added are not in yet, so i'd rather wait for that before proposing new tests modules. ---------- components: Distutils files: distutils.core.patch keywords: patch messages: 63906 nosy: tarek severity: normal status: open title: run_setup can fail if the setup script uses __file__ type: crash versions: Python 2.6 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file9724/distutils.core.patch __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue2385> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
