[setuptools] how to report bugs and patchs ?
Hello, Sorry I must be naive, but I don't understand how setuptools community works at this time. In the README.txt of the package, it is written "Questions, comments, and bug reports should be directed to the distutils-sig mailing list..." But what happens when some bug reports or patches are just ignored in the mailing list ? (even after months) I would expect patch or bug reports to be added in a bug tracker, then rejected or accepted, even if it takes months for them to be treated. At least, registered somewhere. I have read that a bug tracker was going to be set for setuptools, but the current status is rather fuzzy, so I was just wondering if this is stilled planned...

You can go ahead and submit your patches and bug reports on the trac that I set up: http://allmydata.org/trac/setuptools I haven't heard from anyone else that they are willing to use this trac instance, but on the other hand it already works and you can record your contributions for posterity. I'll make sure that all tickets and patches that have accumulated in that trac get moved if someone sets up a new issue tracker that gets more, um, traction. Regards, Zooko
