I'm trying to build a bdist_wininst for PyOpenGL with Python 2.4, but
when I attempt to run the generated installer I get an error message on
clicking the last "Next" (ready-to-install):
Running the pre-installation script failed
File "<string>", line 1
V4³
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
(Those characters being: ' V4\x12\xb3\x02' ).
The same setup is working fine with Python 2.3, so I'm assuming it's a
change or incompatibility in bdist_wininst itself. I don't have a
custom pre-installation script, btw.
Does this sound familiar to anyone? Or am I looking at a new bug?
Mike
