distutils.core.setup --install-script option in Python 2.6 ?
Hello, Please excuse the repost (sent last week), but I'm hoping someone on the list can get me on-track with a distutils problem. I have just upgraded from Python 2.5 to 2.6.4 (MS Windows XP service pack 3). My setup.py scripts (based on distutils.core.setup) no longer work with the --install-script option. Here is the error: * error: option --install-script not recognized The above error occurs when passing either bdist_wininst or bdist_msi parameters to the setup.py scripts. I have been unable to locate any on-line mention of this option not being supported in Python 2.6. I apologize for missing something obvious here, but I am stuck. Thanks in advance for your feedback. -- jv

Hi Jim, the option (in 2.5 and 2.6) is "--install-scripts" (notice the final 's') Regards Tarek

In Python 2.5 *and* 2.6: --install-scripts is an option for "install" --install-script is an option for "bdist_wininst" While this name coincidence is a bit annoying, bdist_wininst option is something else: --install-script basename of installation script to be run afterinstallation or before deinstallation And in install: --install-scripts installation directory for Python scripts Tarek
