Hi,
I'm having trouble in getting Windows absolute paths like e.g d:\foo to work in distutils. They alway seem to be treated as a relative path...
distutils uses Unix path names internally, i.e. / instead of .
Actually, it's not that simple.
The following works, because setup.py lives in d:\bar
../foo
None of these work:
D:/foo /D:/foo //D:/foo D:\foo \D:\foo \D:\foo
