# Wrap up of the distutils2 paris' sprint
|
|
|
|
Finally, thanks to a bunch of people that helped me to pay my train and
|
|
bus tickets, I've made it to paris for the distutils2 sprint.
|
|
|
|
They have been a bit more than 10 people to come during the sprint, and
|
|
it was very productive. Here's a taste of what we've been working on:
|
|
|
|
- the datafiles, a way to specify and to handle the installation of
|
|
files which are not python-related (pictures, manpages and so on).
|
|
- mkgcfg, a tool to help you to create a setup.cfg in minutes (and
|
|
with funny examples)
|
|
- converters from setup.py scripts. We do now have a piece of code
|
|
which reads your current setup.py file and fill in some fields in
|
|
the setup.cfg for you.
|
|
- a compatibility layer for distutils1, so it can read the setup.cfg
|
|
you will wrote for distutils2 :-)
|
|
- the uninstaller, so it's now possible to uninstall what have been
|
|
installed by distutils2 (see PEP 376)
|
|
- the installer, and the setuptools compatibility layer, which will
|
|
allow you to rely on setuptools' based distributions (and there are
|
|
plenty of them\!)
|
|
- The compilers, so they are more flexible than they were. Since
|
|
that's an obscure part of the code for distutils2 commiters (it
|
|
comes directly from the distutils1 ages), having some guys who
|
|
understood the problematics here was a must.
|
|
|
|
Some people have also tried to port their packaging from distutils1 to
|
|
distutils2. They have spotted a number of bugs and made some
|
|
improvements to the code, to make it more friendly to use.
|
|
|
|
I'm really pleased to see how newcomers went trough the code, and
|
|
started hacking so fast. I must say it wasn't the case when we started
|
|
to work on distutils1 so that's a very good point: people now can hack
|
|
the code quicker than they could before.
|
|
|
|
Some of the features here are not *completely* finished yet, but are on
|
|
the tubes, and will be ready for a release (hopefully) at the end of the
|
|
week.
|
|
|
|
Big thanks to logilab for hosting (and sponsoring my train ticket) and
|
|
providing us food, and to bearstech for providing some money for
|
|
breakfast and bears^Wbeers.
|
|
|
|
Again, a big thanks to all the people who gave me money to pay the
|
|
transport, I really wasn't expecting such thing to happen :-)
