arguments, triggering a warning instead of raising an exception. (In 1.5.2/2.0, it will print to stderr.) Bugfix candidate for all previous versions. This changes behaviour, but the old behaviour wasn't very useful. If Distutils version X+1 adds a new keyword argument, using the new keyword means your setup.py file won't work with Distutils version X any more. |

README
This directory contains only a subset of the Distutils, specifically the Python modules in the 'distutils' and 'distutils.command' packages. Technically, this is all you need to distribute and install Python modules using the Distutils. Most people will want some documentation and other help, though. Currently, everything can be found at the Distutils web page: http://www.python.org/sigs/distutils-sig/ From there you can access the latest documentation, or download a standalone Distutils release that includes all the code in this directory, plus documentation, test scripts, examples, etc. The Distutils documentation isn't yet part of the standard Python documentation set, but will be soon.
