Hi there, There are a couple regressions, and a feature request about the latest setup.py stuff: - Parsing the revision from svn 1.4 seems to have regressed. The attached patch replaces the code with a slightly modified version of the code in setuptools/commands/egg_info.py - Passing 'libraries' to 'Extension' needs to be made aware of '--static'. To be more precise, if --static is set, 'libraries' should have '<lib>_a' instead of '<lib>' (eg: 'xslt_a' instead of 'xslt'). - I would like to be able to pass 'static_include_dirs' and 'static_library_dirs' and 'static_cflags' as environment variables, which distutils already understands instead of changing setup.py. That would be 'INCLUDE' and 'LINK' environment variables on win32. -- Sidnei da Silva Enfold Systems http://enfoldsystems.com Fax +1 832 201 8856 Office +1 713 942 2377 Ext 214
