Éric Araujo	a963e0d917	Undo potentially confusing name change in packaging. This method was named reinitialize_command in distutils and accompanied by a comment suggesting to change it to get_reinitialized_command. Following that, I did the change for distutils2, but it proved confusing: The Distribution object has an internal cache of command objects, to make sure only one instance is ever used, and the name get_reinitialized_command could suggest that the object returned was independent of that cache, which it was not. I’m reverting the name change to make code clearer.	2011-11-06 06:54:05 +01:00
Éric Araujo	83ab3f319b	Remove obsolete mentions of the compress program and .Z archives. Packaging uses the shutil.make_archive function copied from distutils, which does not support compress. There is no test to check that “bdist --format whatever” works, so this slipped by.	2011-08-30 01:19:02 +02:00
Éric Araujo	1256a6864e	Re-add line that was mistakenly removed alongside RPM support. This reveals the need for bdist* tests.	2011-05-31 22:38:41 +02:00
