I've put a release candidate for Distutils 1.0.2: http://www.python.org/sigs/distutils-sig/download/ (Available in .tar.gz, .zip, and Win32 .exe formats) Can people please try it out and let me know if there are any problems? If there aren't, in a few days I'll update the Distutils Web page and send out an announcement. People on the Python-checkins list will notice that I haven't made any changes beyond bumping the version number; 1.0.2 is the same code that's in Python 2.1final. --amk

Some quick notes: - the wininst version (Distutils-1.0.2.win32.exe) crashed with a general protection fault, if I build it myself it seems to work. - The archive-util bug reported by Pete Shinners seems still to be present:
in the file "lib/distutils/archive-util.py" line 103, it creates a ZIP archive with the following command...
ZipFile(zip_filename, "wb", compression=zipfile.ZIP_DEFLATED)
I can take a deeper look later, in the meantime it seems it should not yet be released. BTW: There is a bug in the Python 2.1 release version of Distutils: '1.0.2pre' isn't a valid version number by distutils' own standards. This was of course _my_ fault. Thomas

Aieee! My source tree mustn't have been up to date; I've made a new set of tarballs which really *do* have the current code. This may also explain why the Windows installer crashes, since there were some missing patches for it. Please try again with the new files.

I don't think this really matters; the setup.py containing the 1.0.2pre version isn't inside the Python 2.1 source tree at all, --amk

It works now (at least the windows installer which I tried). Thomas
