New submission from Alexander Belopolsky:
With the following simple setup.py
$ cat setup.py
from distutils.core import setup
from distutils.command.install import install
class install1(install):
sub_commands = install.sub_commamnds
setup(name='bug', cmdclass={'install': install1})
I get
>>> from distutils.core import run_setup
>>> run_setup('setup.py')
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "Lib/distutils/core.py", line 216, in run_setup
exec(f.read(), g, l)
File "<string>", line 4, in <module>
File "<string>", line 5, in install1
NameError: name 'install' is not defined
Furthermore, on an even simpler setup.py:
$ cat setup1.py
from distutils.core import setup
setup(name='bug')
run_setup runs, but clobbers sys.argv:
>>> from distutils.core import run_setup
>>> run_setup('setup1.py', script_args=['--name'])
bug
<distutils.dist.Distribution object at 0x101dddef0>
>>> import sys;sys.argv
['setup1.py', '--name']
