installations are present, by always unlinking the destination file before copying to it. Without the unlink(), the copied file remains owned by its previous UID, causing the subsequent chmod() to fail. Bugfix candidate, though it may cause changes on platforms where file ownership behaves differently. |

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.
