[New-bugs-announce] [issue27617] Compiled bdist_wininst missing from embedded distribution

[Michael Smith]

New submission from Michael Smith:

It seems that the embedded distribution is missing bdist_wininst.pyc from the python35.zip .  If you go to distutils\command, you'll notice only 23 compiled python files, where in the regular web based installer for the same Python version there are 24 python files in similar relevant folder.  I encountered this while trying to install a library into the python runtime that had this import statement:

import distutils.command.bdist_wininst
