Remove the Tools/demo/ directory which contained old demo scripts. A
copy can be found in the old-demos project:
https://github.com/gvanrossum/old-demos
Remove the following old demo scripts:
* beer.py
* eiffel.py
* hanoi.py
* life.py
* markov.py
* mcast.py
* queens.py
* redemo.py
* rpython.py
* rpythond.py
* sortvisu.py
* spreadsheet.py
* vector.py
Changes:
* Remove a reference to the redemo.py script in the regex howto
documentation.
* Remove a reference to the removed Tools/demo/ directory in the
curses documentation.
* Update PC/layout/ to remove the reference to Tools/demo/ directory.
The distutils bdist_wininst command deprecated in Python 3.8 has been
removed. The distutils bidst_wheel command is now recommended to
distribute binary packages on Windows.
* Remove Lib/distutils/command/bdist_wininst.py
* Remove PC/bdist_wininst/ project
* Remove Lib/distutils/command/wininst-*.exe programs
* Remove all references to bdist_wininst
- Copy existing xxlimited to xxlimited53 (named for the limited API version it uses)
- Build both modules, both in debug and release
- Test both modules
Note that the support is not actually enabled yet, and so we won't be publishing these packages. However, for those who want to build it themselves (even by reusing the Azure Pipelines definition), it's now relatively easy to enable.
Previously, pyc files in the embeddable distribution reported their
location as <build path>/<file stem>.py. This causes a little confusion
when interpreting stack traces as the file is in a (almost certainly)
incorrect location, and lacks the full relative path to Lib (e.g.
email/mime/image.py will only show image.py).
This change preserves the Lib relative location of the source file as a
path so that stack traces are (hopefully) less misleading and more
informative.
