This patch solves a warning during configure, specifically: ... config.status: creating Makefile.pre config.status: WARNING: ../Makefile.pre.in seems to ignore the --datarootdir setting ...

This addresses the primary concern in http://bugs.python.org/issue1706815 python-dev discussion here: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2007-July/073749.html I chose IOError rather than EnvironmentError as the base class since socket objects are often used as transparent duck typed file objects in code already prepared to deal with IOError exceptions. also a minor fix: urllib2 - fix a couple places where IOError was raised rather than URLError. for better or worse, URLError already inherits from IOError so this won't break any existing code. test_urllib2net - replace bad ftp urls. ........ r58084 | martin.v.loewis | 2007-09-10 08:18:32 +0200 (Mon, 10 Sep 2007) | 3 lines tr a-z A-Z does not work on Solaris (would require /usr/xpg4/bin/tr); make the character ranges explicit. ........ r58086 | martin.v.loewis | 2007-09-10 12:21:22 +0200 (Mon, 10 Sep 2007) | 1 line Take chm file from build/htmlhelp/pydoc.chm. ........ r58087 | martin.v.loewis | 2007-09-10 12:22:05 +0200 (Mon, 10 Sep 2007) | 1 line Beginnings of a "build MSI" step. ........ r58088 | martin.v.loewis | 2007-09-10 15:19:10 +0200 (Mon, 10 Sep 2007) | 1 line Allow making update with no prior checkout. ........ r58089 | martin.v.loewis | 2007-09-10 15:20:03 +0200 (Mon, 10 Sep 2007) | 1 line Update before making htmlhelp. ........ r58090 | martin.v.loewis | 2007-09-10 15:30:38 +0200 (Mon, 10 Sep 2007) | 1 line Require that bash.exe is on the path, along with the rest of Cygwin. ........ |

Packaging Python as a Microsoft Installer Package (MSI) ======================================================= Using this library, Python can be packaged as a MS-Windows MSI file. To generate an installer package, you need a build tree. By default, the build tree root directory is assumed to be in "../..". This location can be changed by adding a file config.py; see the beginning of msi.py for additional customization options. The packaging process assumes that binaries have been generated according to the instructions in PCBuild/README.txt, and that you have either Visual Studio or the Platform SDK installed. In addition, you need the Python COM extensions, either from PythonWin, or from ActivePython. To invoke the script, open a cmd.exe window which has cabarc.exe in its PATH (e.g. "Visual Studio .NET 2003 Command Prompt"). Then invoke <path-to-python.exe> msi.py If everything succeeds, pythonX.Y.Z.msi is generated in the current directory.
