Nick Coghlan b5c4fd0a96 Issue #19407: add Python Packaging User Guide notes
The stdlib docs for package distribution and building extensions
are rather dated, and that isn't expected to change for 2.7 and
3.3.

The Python Packaging User Guide isn't complete either, but it's
already a much better road map for new users than the existing
stdlib docs.

Éric Araujo 3e4a3dcb23 Ignore .nfs* files in distutils (#7719).
These files are created by some NFS clients a file is edited and removed
concurrently (see added link in doc for more info).  If such a file is
removed between distutils calls listdir and copy, it will get confused.
Other special files are ignored in sdist (namely VCS directories), but
this has to be filtered out earlier.

Éric Araujo 80d440aee1 Move distutils install doc back into place.
(This was not done in the previous commit because Mercurial would have
shown it as a modified file instead of a moved file.)

is ready.  See discussion starting at

Éric Araujo 9cff42736d Hide or remove user-visible XXX notes from distutils doc (#13716).
Requested by Florent Xicluna with the rationale that they make the docs
look unfinished.  I’ve also removed a few XXX notes that were not
visible in the HTML but could waste contributors’ time by suggesting
improvements that are never going to happen for distutils.

Éric Araujo 7dc76fdeb1 Merge doc changes from 3.2 (#8617, #10745).
In the install and library docs, I changed the text to refer to
packaging instead of distutils.  I also checked that the documented
paths correctly reflect what’s really defined in sysconfig; the main
difference with paths defined in distutils.install is that include
directories don’t end with the distribution name anymore (i.e. distutils
uses include/python3.3/spam, sysconfig include/python3.3), I have no
idea why.

Éric Araujo ad548b8534 Merge fixes for #9860, #11104/#8688 and #12331 from 3.2 2011-07-31 18:33:00 +02:00
Éric Araujo ab7c1b3f11 Fix regression with distutils MANIFEST handing (#11104, #8688).
The changed behavior of sdist in 3.1 broke packaging for projects that
wanted to use a manually-maintained MANIFEST file (instead of having a
MANIFEST.in template and letting distutils generate the MANIFEST).

The fixes that were committed for #8688 (76643c286b9f by Tarek and
d54da9248ed9 by me) did not fix all issues exposed in the bug report,
and also added one problem: the MANIFEST file format gained comments,
but the read_manifest method was not updated to handle (i.e. ignore)
them.  This changeset should fix everything; the tests have been
expanded and I successfully tested the 2.7 version with Mercurial, which
suffered from this regression.

I have grouped the versionchanged directives for these bugs in one place
and added micro version numbers to help users know the quirks of the
exact version they’re using.

Initial report, thorough diagnosis and patch by John Dennis, further
work on the patch by Stephen Thorne, and a few edits and additions by
me.
