Steve Dower added the comment: Distutils is now deprecated (see PEP 632) and all tagged issues are being closed. From now until removal, only release blocking issues will be considered for distutils. If this issue does not relate to distutils, please remove the component and reopen it. If you believe it still requires a fix, most likely the issue should be re-reported at https://github.com/pypa/setuptools ---------- nosy: +steve.dower resolution: -> out of date stage: -> resolved status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker https://bugs.python.org/issue763043 _______________________________________
