Is there a way you can release a pure source tarball without the
pregenerated documentation?
It would save quite a few megabytes and I would not have to repackage
the source to comply with debian rules.

building the rc1 source does not work as the parallel scripts are
missing in the rc1 tarball:

python setup.py build
running build_scripts
error: file
'/home/jtaylor/Downloads/ipython-0.11.rc1/IPython/parallel/scripts/ipengine'
does not exist

if you copy them from git it builds.


But there are still random crashes in the testsuite (~ every tenth time).
This might be a zmq bug. I'm using the current debian version 2.1.7-1.

ok
