[Tutor] Does Python 2.7 bdist_wininst perform checksum verification?
Hello, I can't seem to find documentation in docs.python.org that talks about whether or not the Python Build Distribution command, bdist_wininst performs checksum verification upon installing a Windows executable *.exe. I would think that it does but I need a reference(s) that describes this - can someone point me to a description of how checksums are used to verify the integrity of the installed software? Any help would be appreciated - thanks! ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor

That's probably a bit off topic for the tutor list, we focus on beginner to python type stuff. Language issues and standard library usage. I'd try the main Python mailing list for more likelihood of a response. -- 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
