directory that is not the source directory (ie, one created using '/path/to/source/configure'.) Leaves this test very slightly degraded in that particular case, compared to the build-in-sourcedir case, but that case isn't a particularly strong test either: neither test the actual path that will be used after installing. There isn't a particularly good way to test this, and a poor test beats a failing test. |

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) $Id$
