Hey
As Marc-André suggested, it would be a good thing to move the bootstrapping file to :https://pypi.python.org/packages/source/d/distribute/distribute_setup.py +1
I need to do something similar for buildout bootstrap files. How are you accomplishing this?
By POSTing a multipart/form-data, like what the upload command does for sdists : http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/0f827775f7b7/Lib/distutils/command/upload....
I can write a small script that does it (bascially rip off upload.upload_file() and remove the part about the metadata)
We could also write a custom sdist that does this, with an extra_dist_files, but oh well.. :) Hm. I just tried to do this with ez_setup.py for setuptools, and PyPI's complaining that a .py file isn't a valid distribution. (I'm using the web interface, not the upload command, but same basic idea.)
AFAICT, we'll need the PyPI admins to implement support for .py uploads for this to work. Oh you are right, I have not noticed that,
we need to add *.py here: https://bitbucket.org/loewis/pypi/src/f18ce0fbe947c1ce778761ea81d6704572cebb... Will poke Catalog-sig -- Tarek Ziadé · http://ziade.org · @tarek_ziade
