Steve Dower added the comment: Sorry, I was focused on the fact that you don't need a manifest with VS 2010 and not that distutils was forcing you to have one when building an executable.
Either adding '/MANIFEST' as in paxan's patch (according to http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/fft52235.aspx, you need to specify it if you specify '/MANIFESTNAME') or removing the MANIFESTNAME specification entirely should be fine for 3.4 and later. I assume since nobody has complained about 2.7 that everything works fine there? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4431> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
