[New-bugs-announce] [issue6040] bdist_msi does not deal with pre-release version

[Cournapeau David]

New submission from Cournapeau David <david at ar.media.kyoto-u.ac.jp>:

If bdist_msi is used on a package which has a non released version
(defined from StrictVersion), it refuses to build the package. The code
for the bdist_msi mentions that pre-release is not supported. Knowing
nothing about msi, I don't know what shall be done for it to work.
