Can you explain the difficulty with porting setuptools in more detail?
Oh, it just exposes a bug in distutils. It probably means I'll have to
make a test for python version, and if it is 3.0.1, monkey-patch
distutils. I haven't really looked into if there is any other
possibilities yet, I'm concentrating to make it run for 3.1 trunk
first.
Didn't a test fail because of this? seems the underlying issue is that
this part of the stdlib didn't have enough test coverage. It seems that
having very good/improving test coverage like is recommended for
3rd-party project wanting to switch would be a good goal for 3.0
evolution too. We know from PyPy experience that while always improving
the test suite coverage is quite spotty at times.
