New submission from Cournapeau David <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
I tried to build some extensions with python 2.6 (built from sources
with VS 2008 express), and got some errors in the function
query_vcvarsall. The offending lines are:
if len(result) != len(interesting):
raise ValueError(str(list(result.keys())))
I got a value error here. After some investigation, I realized that it
was because I did not install the SDK. I think the error message could
be isgnificantly improved if installing the SDK was suggested in the
exception message.
