Patch by Anastasia Filatova.
2014-03-12 21:41:35 -05:00
Éric Araujo 31fe52dc9e Make distutils error messages more helpful (#11599).
When running external programs such as a C compiler and getting an
error code, distutils only prints the program name.  With this change,
one can get the full command line by setting the DISTUTILS_DEBUG
environment variable.

This should have no compatibility issues, unless there are tools
that depend on the exact format of distutils debug messages.

Nick Coghlan 73188fb68b 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

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.
