Try 'import distutils.log'.
Thank you. That works.
However, since the current python docs warn that distutils.log is deprecated [1], I'm currently using "logging" instead. Is there any reason not to do that?
Yes. First, that deprecation is unlikely to have any effect before Python 3.0, and second, using "logging" directly will prevent the distutils or setuptools from controlling the verbosity level of your output. In other words you will break the -q/-v options specified on the command line by the user.
