recommended setuptools version
Hi, I'm a bit confused with the setuptools versioning. When I install it by ez_setup.py it installs the 3.0.2 version, but on pypi the latest version is 2.2. Is there a difference between the two? Which is the recommended one? Thanks Zoltan
Hi, You can see the detailed CHANGELOG here: https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/src/1041039c719012ca9e466cd43ba3fa80f0... There were some deprecated things dropped. If you are not using them you are probably fine. Squeaky On 03/07/2014 11:02 AM, Benedek Zoltan wrote:

3.0 was released last night, broke a bunch of popular software, and was hurriedly pulled from PyPI. The current version of ez_setup.py available at https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/raw/bootstrap/ez_setup.py also installs 2.2. I suggest you stick with 2.2 until the dust settles.

To follow up, 3.1 has been released and the 3.0.x releases have been restored.
