Patch from Mark Hammond: bdist_wininst attempts to use the correct MSVC runtime for the current version of Python. This doesn't work correctly when --target-version is set. In that case, bdist_wininst still uses the *current* sys.version (ie, 2.4) rather than the version specified as --target-version. Thus, the msvc7 runtime based executable stub is *always* used. This patch "hard-codes" knowledge of earlier Python versions, providing the correct result when Python 2.4 is used to build Python 2.3 and earlier distributions. Remove the short variant (-v) of the --target-version command line options, it conflicts with the --verbose/-v standard distutils switch. |

README
This directory contains only a subset of the Distutils, specifically the Python modules in the 'distutils' and 'distutils.command' packages. This is all you need to distribute and install Python modules using the Distutils. There is also a separately packaged standalone version of the Distutils available for people who want to upgrade the Distutils without upgrading Python, available from the Distutils web page: http://www.python.org/sigs/distutils-sig/ The standalone version includes all of the code in this directory, plus documentation, test scripts, examples, etc. The Distutils documentation is divided into two documents, "Installing Python Modules", which explains how to install Python packages, and "Distributing Python Modules", which explains how to write setup.py files. Both documents are part of the standard Python documentation set, and are available from http://www.python.org/doc/current/ . Greg Ward (gward@python.net) $Id$
