I suspect the latter is true to some extent. To be fair Python packaging was a complete mess for many years with competing technologies and tools. It is only in the last 3 years or so that things have settled down so it wouldn't surprise me if the documentation is still catching up. However, I virtually never build packages so can't really comment, but hopefully somebody else can help. What would be more useful to such a person is if you can send the actual code and error messages, since saying you had to comment out 70% of the lines because of warnings doesn't really tell us very much. It may be that you could safely ignore the warnings or it may indicate a more serious underlying error. But as of now we are just guessing. -- Alan G Author of the Learn to Program web site http://www.alan-g.me.uk/ http://www.amazon.com/author/alan_gauld Follow my photo-blog on Flickr at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/alangauldphotos _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
