Adds bztar format to generate .tar.bz2 tarballs Uses the -f argument to overright old tarballs automatically, I am assuming that if the old tarball was wanted it would have been moved or else the version number would have been changed. Uses the -9 argument to bzip2 and gzip to use maximum compression. Compress uses the maximum compression by default. Tests for correct value for the 'compress' argument of make_tarball. This is one less place for someone adding new compression programs to forget to change. |

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.
