I've released version 0.1.2 of distil, downloadable from [1]. It's based on distlib 0.1.3, which brings support for PEP 426. The other changes are as follows: * Fixed a bug in pre-release handling which occurred when there were *only* pre-releases available. * Added support to convert "bdist_wininst" installers to wheels. This is done by using "distil package", specifying only the wheel format and giving the path to the installer in place of the source directory. * Added --wheel-version option to package command to allow specifying a wheel version when building wheels. * Fixed bugs in uninstallation code which occurred only for some installations. * Fixed a bug in package data installation where data in packages not explicitly named in package-data was missed. * Updated "distil link" to show existing links when invoked with no arguments. * When building wheels, native executable launchers are not included, and scripts are not generated from exports. * Added support for PEP 426 installation hooks. * Added --target argument to "distil install" to allow partial installation to arbitrary directories. * Added --prereleases argument to "distil install", "distil test", and "distil download" to support inclusion of pre-releases when locating distributions and performing dependency resolution. * Numerous documentation updates. Your feedback will be gratefully received! Regards, Vinay Sajip [1] https://bitbucket.org/vinay.sajip/docs-distil/downloads/distil.py
