Distutils2: Does uploading to pypi work yet?
I recently failed to upload a project to pypi using distutils2 and failed to install the project using pip. Are distutils2 and pip not yet supporting 'setup.cfg' only projects yet? The upload failed to upload the tarball to pypi because of what looks like a problem encoding a multipart form message with distutils2.util.encode_multipart(). I tried to fix that problem (using a base64 encoding) but ran into 500 http return code from the pypi server. The uploading code seems pretty 'alpha', so I was wondering if anyone is successfully using 'pysetup' to upload projects to pypi. After failing to upload the distribtion, I uploaded it to github and then registered my project with a github download url. Then I tried installing my project using pip and that failed too, since I did not have a setup.py, only a setup.cfg, in the project. I'm using python 2.7.3, pip 1.1, and distutils2 from hg.python.org/distutils2 (pulled and updated) on Mac OS X 10.6.8. -- Todd DeLuca http://todddeluca.com http://wall.hms.harvard.edu/
I can't speak for uploading to PyPI, but pip doesn't support distutils2 yet. On Sunday, May 27, 2012 at 11:19 AM, Todd DeLuca wrote:

I can't speak for PyPI or pip, but not a lot of stuff works with setup.cfg-only distutils2/packaging projects. Though I'm fairly certain they shouldn't be expected to work yet. Shameless plug, but have you tried d2to1 (http://pypi.python.org/pypi/d2to1)? It allows you to use a setup.cfg with existing tools like pip by way of a simple stub setup.py. It might not suit all your needs, but it also might :) Erik
