I've also opened https://github.com/pypa/packaging-problems/issues/127 to discuss coming up with a migration plan whereby *setuptools* eventually becomes the reference implementation of the distutils API, and we remove the CPython level implementation entirely. ---------- resolution: -> third party stage: patch review -> resolved status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue33069> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
