Pin setuptools to latest version 27.3.0 #165

pyup-bot · 2016-09-26T08:55:07Z

setuptools is not pinned to a specific version.

I'm pinning it to the latest version 27.3.0 for now.

Changelog

27.3.0

794: In test command, add installed eggs to PYTHONPATH
when invoking tests so that subprocesses will also have the
dependencies available. Fixes tox 330 <https://github.com/tox-dev/tox/issues/330>_.

795: Update vendored pyparsing 2.1.9.

27.2.0

520 and 513: Suppress ValueErrors in fixup_namespace_packages
when lookup fails.

Nicer, more consistent interfaces for msvc monkeypatching.

27.1.2

779 via 781: Fix circular import.

27.1.1

778: Fix MSVC monkeypatching.

27.1.0

Introduce the (private) monkey module to encapsulate
the distutils monkeypatching behavior.

27.0.0

Now use Warehouse by default for
upload, patching distutils.config.PyPIRCCommand to
affect default behavior.

Any config in .pypirc should be updated to replace

https://pypi.python.org/pypi/

with

https://upload.pypi.org/legacy/

Similarly, any passwords stored in the keyring should be
updated to use this new value for "system".

The upload_docs command will continue to use the python.org
site, but the command is now deprecated. Users are urged to use
Read The Docs instead.

776: Use EXT_SUFFIX for py_limited_api renaming.

774 and 775: Use LegacyVersion from packaging when
detecting numpy versions.

26.1.1

Re-release of 26.1.0 with pytest pinned to allow for automated
deployement and thus proper packaging environment variables,
fixing issues with missing executable launchers.

26.1.0

763: pkg_resources.get_default_cache now defers to the
appdirs project <https://pypi.org/project/appdirs>_ to
resolve the cache directory. Adds a vendored dependency on
appdirs to pkg_resources.

26.0.0

748: By default, sdists are now produced in gzipped tarfile
format by default on all platforms, adding forward compatibility
for the same behavior in Python 3.6 (See Python 27819).

459 via 736: On Windows with script launchers,
sys.argv[0] now reflects
the name of the entry point, consistent with the behavior in
distlib and pip wrappers.

752 via 753: When indicating py_limited_api to Extension,
it must be passed as a keyword argument.

25.4.0

Add Extension(py_limited_api=True). When set to a truthy value,
that extension gets a filename apropriate for code using Py_LIMITED_API.
When used correctly this allows a single compiled extension to work on
all future versions of CPython 3.
The py_limited_api argument only controls the filename. To be
compatible with multiple versions of Python 3, the C extension
will also need to set -DPy_LIMITED_API=... and be modified to use
only the functions in the limited API.

25.3.0

739 Fix unquoted libpaths by fixing compatibility between numpy.distutils and distutils._msvccompiler for numpy < 1.11.2 (Fix issue 728, error also fixed in Numpy).

731: Bump certifi.

Style updates. See 740, 741, 743, 744, 742, 747.

735: include license file.

25.2.0

612 via 730: Add a LICENSE file which needs to be provided by the terms of
the MIT license.

25.1.6

725: revert library_dir_option patch (Error is related to numpy.distutils and make errors on non Numpy users).

25.1.5

720

723: Improve patch for library_dir_option.

25.1.4

717

713

707: Fix Python 2 compatibility for MSVC by catching errors properly.

715: Fix unquoted libpaths by patching library_dir_option.

25.1.3

714 and 704: Revert fix as it breaks other components
downstream that can't handle unicode. See 709, 710,
and 712.

25.1.2

704: Fix errors when installing a zip sdist that contained
files named with non-ascii characters on Windows would
crash the install when it attempted to clean up the build.

646: MSVC compatibility - catch errors properly in
RegistryInfo.lookup.

702: Prevent UnboundLocalError when initial working_set
is empty.

25.1.1

686: Fix issue in sys.path ordering by pkg_resources when
rewrite technique is "raw".

699: Fix typo in msvc support.

25.1.0

609: Setuptools will now try to download a distribution from
the next possible download location if the first download fails.
This means you can now specify multiple links as dependency_links
and all links will be tried until a working download link is encountered.

25.0.2

688: Fix AttributeError in setup.py when invoked not from
the current directory.

25.0.1

Cleanup of setup.py script.

Fixed documentation builders by allowing setup.py
to be imported without having bootstrapped the
metadata.

More style cleanup. See 677, 678, 679, 681, 685.

25.0.0

674: Default sys.path manipulation by easy-install.pth
is now "raw", meaning that when writing easy-install.pth
during any install operation, the sys.path will not be
rewritten and will no longer give preference to easy_installed
packages.

To retain the old behavior when using any easy_install
operation (including setup.py install when setuptools is
present), set the environment variable:

SETUPTOOLS_SYS_PATH_TECHNIQUE=rewrite

This project hopes that that few if any environments find it
necessary to retain the old behavior, and intends to drop
support for it altogether in a future release. Please report
any relevant concerns in the ticket for this change.

24.3.1

398: Fix shebang handling on Windows in script
headers where spaces in sys.executable would
produce an improperly-formatted shebang header,
introduced in 12.0 with the fix for 188.

663, 670: More style updates.

24.3.0

516: Disable os.link to avoid hard linking
in sdist.make_distribution, avoiding errors on
systems that support hard links but not on the
file system in which the build is occurring.

24.2.1

667: Update Metadata-Version to 1.2 when
python_requires is supplied.

24.2.0

631: Add support for python_requires keyword.

24.1.1

More style updates. See 660, 661, 641.

24.1.0

659: setup.py now will fail fast and with a helpful
error message when the necessary metadata is missing.

More style updates. See 656, 635, 640,
644, 650, 652, and 655.

24.0.3

Updated style in much of the codebase to match
community expectations. See 632, 633, 634,
637, 639, 638, 642, 648.

24.0.2

If MSVC++14 is needed setuptools.msvc now redirect
user to Visual C++ Build Tools web page.

24.0.1

625 and 626: Fixes on setuptools.msvc mainly
for Python 2 and Linux.

24.0.0

Pull Request 174: Add more aggressive support for
standalone Microsoft Visual C++ compilers in
msvc9compiler patch.
Particularly : Windows SDK 6.1 and 7.0
(MSVC++ 9.0), Windows SDK 7.1 (MSVC++ 10.0),
Visual C++ Build Tools 2015 (MSVC++14)

Renamed setuptools.msvc9_support to
setuptools.msvc.

23.2.1

Re-release of v23.2.0, which was missing the intended
commits.

623: Remove used of deprecated 'U' flag when reading
manifests.

23.1.0

619: Deprecated tag_svn_revision distribution
option.

23.0.0

611: Removed ARM executables for CLI and GUI script
launchers on Windows. If this was a feature you cared
about, please comment in the ticket.

604: Removed docs building support. The project
now relies on documentation hosted at
https://setuptools.readthedocs.io/.

22.0.5

604: Restore repository for upload_docs command
to restore publishing of docs during release.

22.0.4

589: Upload releases to pypi.io using the upload
hostname and legacy path.

22.0.3

589: Releases are now uploaded to pypi.io (Warehouse)
even when releases are made on Twine via Travis.

22.0.2

589: Releases are now uploaded to pypi.io (Warehouse).

22.0.1

190: On Python 2, if unicode is passed for packages to
build_py command, it will be handled just as with
text on Python 3.

22.0.0

Intended to be v21.3.0, but jaraco accidentally released as
a major bump.

598: Setuptools now lists itself first in the User-Agent
for web requests, better following the guidelines in
RFC 7231 <https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7231section-5.5.3>_.

21.2.2

Minor fixes to changelog and docs.

21.2.1

261: Exclude directories when resolving globs in
package_data.

21.2.0

539: In the easy_install get_site_dirs, honor all
paths found in site.getsitepackages.

21.1.0

572: In build_ext, now always import _CONFIG_VARS
from distutils rather than from sysconfig
to allow distutils.sysconfig.customize_compiler
configure the OS X compiler for -dynamiclib.

21.0.0

Removed ez_setup.py from Setuptools sdist. The
bootstrap script will be maintained in its own
branch and should be generally be retrieved from
its canonical location at
https://bootstrap.pypa.io/ez_setup.py.

20.10.0

553: egg_info section is now generated in a
deterministic order, matching the order generated
by earlier versions of Python. Except on Python 2.6,
order is preserved when existing settings are present.

556: Update to Packaging 16.7, restoring support
for deprecated python_implmentation marker.

555: Upload command now prompts for a password
when uploading to PyPI (or other repository) if no
password is present in .pypirc or in the keyring.

20.9.0

548: Update certify version to 2016.2.28

545: Safely handle deletion of non-zip eggs in rotate
command.

20.8.1

Issue 544: Fix issue with extra environment marker
processing in WorkingSet due to refactor in v20.7.0.

20.8.0

Issue 543: Re-release so that latest release doesn't
cause déjà vu with distribute and setuptools 0.7 in
older environments.

20.7.0

Refactored extra environment marker processing
in WorkingSet.

Issue 533: Fixed intermittent test failures.

Issue 536: In msvc9_support, trap additional exceptions
that might occur when importing
distutils.msvc9compiler in mingw environments.

Issue 537: Provide better context when package
metadata fails to decode in UTF-8.

20.6.8

Issue 523: Restored support for environment markers,
now honoring 'extra' environment markers.

20.6.7

Issue 523: Disabled support for environment markers
introduced in v20.5.

20.6.6

Issue 503: Restore support for PEP 345 environment
markers by updating to Packaging 16.6.

20.6.0

New release process that relies on
bumpversion <https://github.com/peritus/bumpversion>_
and Travis CI for continuous deployment.

Project versioning semantics now follow
semver <https://semver.org>_ precisely.
The 'v' prefix on version numbers now also allows
version numbers to be referenced in the changelog,
e.g. https://pythonhosted.org/setuptools/history.htmlv20-6-0.

20.5

BB Pull Request 185, 470: Add support for environment markers
in requirements in install_requires, setup_requires,
tests_require as well as adding a test for the existing
extra_requires machinery.

20.4

Issue 422: Moved hosting to
Github <https://github.com/pypa/setuptools>_
from Bitbucket <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools>_.
Issues have been migrated, though all issues and comments
are attributed to bb-migration. So if you have a particular
issue or issues to which you've been subscribed, you will
want to "watch" the equivalent issue in Github.
The Bitbucket project will be retained for the indefinite
future, but Github now hosts the canonical project repository.

20.3.1

Issue 519: Remove import hook when reloading the
pkg_resources module.

BB Pull Request 184: Update documentation in pkg_resources
around new Requirement implementation.

20.3

BB Pull Request 179: pkg_resources.Requirement objects are
now a subclass of packaging.requirements.Requirement,
allowing any environment markers and url (if any) to be
affiliated with the requirement

BB Pull Request 179: Restore use of RequirementParseError
exception unintentionally dropped in 20.2.

20.2.2

Issue 502: Correct regression in parsing of multiple
version specifiers separated by commas and spaces.

20.2.1

Issue 499: Restore compatibility for legacy versions
by bumping to packaging 16.4.

20.2

Changelog now includes release dates and links to PEPs.

BB Pull Request 173: Replace dual PEP 345 _markerlib implementation
and PEP 426 implementation of environment marker support from
packaging 16.1 and PEP 508. Fixes Issue 122.
See also BB Pull Request 175, BB Pull Request 168, and
BB Pull Request 164. Additionally:

Requirement.parse no longer retains the order of extras.

parse_requirements now requires that all versions be
PEP-440 compliant, as revealed in 499. Packages released
with invalid local versions should be re-released using
the proper local version syntax, e.g. mypkg-1.0+myorg.1.

20.1.1

Update upload_docs command to also honor keyring
for password resolution.

20.1

Added support for using passwords from keyring in the upload
command. See the upload docs <http://pythonhosted.org/setuptools/setuptools.htmlupload-upload-source-and-or-egg-distributions-to-pypi>_
for details.

20.0

Issue 118: Once again omit the package metadata (egg-info)
from the list of outputs in --record. This version of setuptools
can no longer be used to upgrade pip earlier than 6.0.

19.7

Off-project PR <https://github.com/jaraco/setuptools/pull/32>_:
For FreeBSD, also honor root certificates from ca_root_nss.

19.6.2

Issue 491: Correct regression incurred in 19.4 where
a double-namespace package installed using pip would
cause a TypeError.

19.6.1

Restore compatibility for PyPy 3 compatibility lost in
19.4.1 addressing Issue 487.

setuptools.launch shim now loads scripts in a new
namespace, avoiding getting relative imports from
the setuptools package on Python 2.

19.6

Added a new entry script setuptools.launch,
implementing the shim found in
pip.util.setuptools_build. Use this command to launch
distutils-only packages under setuptools in the same way that
pip does, causing the setuptools monkeypatching of distutils
to be invoked prior to invoking a script. Useful for debugging
or otherwise installing a distutils-only package under
setuptools when pip isn't available or otherwise does not
expose the desired functionality. For example::

$ python -m setuptools.launch setup.py develop

Issue 488: Fix dual manifestation of Extension class in
extension packages installed as dependencies when Cython
is present.

19.5

Issue 486: Correct TypeError when getfilesystemencoding
returns None.

Issue 139: Clarified the license as MIT.

BB Pull Request 169: Removed special handling of command
spec in scripts for Jython.

19.4.1

Issue 487: Use direct invocation of importlib.machinery
in pkg_resources to avoid missing detection on relevant
platforms.

19.4

Issue 341: Correct error in path handling of package data
files in build_py command when package is empty.

Distribute 323, Issue 141, Issue 207, and
BB Pull Request 167: Another implementation of
pkg_resources.WorkingSet and pkg_resources.Distribution
that supports replacing an extant package with a new one,
allowing for setup_requires dependencies to supersede installed
packages for the session.

19.3

Issue 229: Implement new technique for readily incorporating
dependencies conditionally from vendored copies or primary
locations. Adds a new dependency on six.

19.2

BB Pull Request 163: Add get_command_list method to Distribution.

BB Pull Request 162: Add missing whitespace to multiline string
literals.

19.1.1

Issue 476: Cast version to string (using default encoding)
to avoid creating Unicode types on Python 2 clients.

Issue 477: In Powershell downloader, use explicit rendering
of strings, rather than rely on repr, which can be
incorrect (especially on Python 2).

19.1

Issue 215: The bootstrap script ez_setup.py now
automatically detects
the latest version of setuptools (using PyPI JSON API) rather
than hard-coding a particular value.

Issue 475: Fix incorrect usage in _translate_metadata2.

19.0

Issue 442: Use RawConfigParser for parsing .pypirc file.
Interpolated values are no longer honored in .pypirc files.

18.8.1

Issue 440: Prevent infinite recursion when a SandboxViolation
or other UnpickleableException occurs in a sandbox context
with setuptools hidden. Fixes regression introduced in Setuptools
12.0.

18.8

Deprecated egg_info.get_pkg_info_revision.

Issue 471: Don't rely on repr for an HTML attribute value in
package_index.

Issue 419: Avoid errors in FileMetadata when the metadata directory
is broken.

Issue 472: Remove deprecated use of 'U' in mode parameter
when opening files.

18.7.1

Issue 469: Refactored logic for Issue 419 fix to re-use metadata
loading from Provider.

18.7

Update dependency on certify.

BB Pull Request 160: Improve detection of gui script in
easy_install._adjust_header.

Made test.test_args a non-data property; alternate fix
for the issue reported in BB Pull Request 155.

Issue 453: In ez_setup bootstrap module, unload all
pkg_resources modules following download.

BB Pull Request 158: Honor PEP-488 when excluding
files for namespace packages.

Issue 419 and BB Pull Request 144: Add experimental support for
reading the version info from distutils-installed metadata rather
than using the version in the filename.

18.6.1

Issue 464: Correct regression in invocation of superclass on old-style
class on Python 2.

18.6

Issue 439: When installing entry_point scripts under development,
omit the version number of the package, allowing any version of the
package to be used.

18.5

In preparation for dropping support for Python 3.2, a warning is
now logged when pkg_resources is imported on Python 3.2 or earlier
Python 3 versions.

Add support for python_platform_implementation environment marker <https://github.com/jaraco/setuptools/pull/28>_.

Fix dictionary mutation during iteration <https://github.com/jaraco/setuptools/pull/29>_.

18.4

Issue 446: Test command now always invokes unittest, even
if no test suite is supplied.

18.3.2

Correct another regression in setuptools.findall
where the fix for Python 12885 was lost.

18.3.1

Issue 425: Correct regression in setuptools.findall.

18.3

BB Pull Request 135: Setuptools now allows disabling of
the manipulation of the sys.path
during the processing of the easy-install.pth file. To do so, set
the environment variable SETUPTOOLS_SYS_PATH_TECHNIQUE to
anything but "rewrite" (consider "raw"). During any install operation
with manipulation disabled, setuptools packages will be appended to
sys.path naturally.

Future versions may change the default behavior to disable
manipulation. If so, the default behavior can be retained by setting
the variable to "rewrite".

Issue 257: easy_install --version now shows more detail
about the installation location and Python version.

Refactor setuptools.findall in preparation for re-submission
back to distutils.

18.2

Issue 412: More efficient directory search in find_packages.

18.1

Upgrade to vendored packaging 15.3.

18.0.1

Issue 401: Fix failure in test suite.

18.0

Dropped support for builds with Pyrex. Only Cython is supported.

Issue 288: Detect Cython later in the build process, after
setup_requires dependencies are resolved.
Projects backed by Cython can now be readily built
with a setup_requires dependency. For example::

ext = setuptools.Extension('mylib', ['src/CythonStuff.pyx', 'src/CStuff.c'])
setuptools.setup(
...
ext_modules=[ext],
setup_requires=['cython'],
)

For compatibility with older versions of setuptools, packagers should
still include src/CythonMod.c in the source distributions or
require that Cython be present before building source distributions.
However, for systems with this build of setuptools, Cython will be
downloaded on demand.

Issue 396: Fixed test failure on OS X.

BB Pull Request 136: Remove excessive quoting from shebang headers
for Jython.

17.1.1

Backed out unintended changes to pkg_resources, restoring removal of
deprecated imp module (ref <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/commits/f572ec9563d647fa8d4ffc534f2af8070ea07a8bcomment-1881283>_).

17.1

Issue 380: Add support for range operators on environment
marker evaluation.

17.0

Issue 378: Do not use internal importlib._bootstrap module.

Issue 390: Disallow console scripts with path separators in
the name. Removes unintended functionality and brings behavior
into parity with pip.

16.0

BB Pull Request 130: Better error messages for errors in
parsed requirements.

BB Pull Request 133: Removed setuptools.tests from the
installed packages.

BB Pull Request 129: Address deprecation warning due to usage
of imp module.

15.2

Issue 373: Provisionally expose
pkg_resources._initialize_master_working_set, allowing for
imperative re-initialization of the master working set.

15.1

Updated to Packaging 15.1 to address Packaging 28.

Fix setuptools.sandbox._execfile() with Python 3.1.

15.0

BB Pull Request 126: DistributionNotFound message now lists the package or
packages that required it. E.g.::

pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: The 'colorama>=0.3.1' distribution was not found and is required by smlib.log.

Note that zc.buildout once dependended on the string rendering of this
message to determine the package that was not found. This expectation
has since been changed, but older versions of buildout may experience
problems. See Buildout 242 for details.

14.3.1

Issue 307: Removed PEP-440 warning during parsing of versions
in pkg_resources.Distribution.

Issue 364: Replace deprecated usage with recommended usage of
EntryPoint.load.

14.3

Issue 254: When creating temporary egg cache on Unix, use mode 755
for creating the directory to avoid the subsequent warning if
the directory is group writable.

14.2

Issue 137: Update Distribution.hashcmp so that Distributions with
None for pyversion or platform can be compared against Distributions
defining those attributes.

14.1.1

Issue 360: Removed undesirable behavior from test runs, preventing
write tests and installation to system site packages.

14.1

BB Pull Request 125: Add __ne__ to Requirement class.

Various refactoring of easy_install.

14.0

Bootstrap script now accepts --to-dir to customize save directory or
allow for re-use of existing repository of setuptools versions. See
BB Pull Request 112 for background.

Issue 285: easy_install no longer will default to installing
packages to the "user site packages" directory if it is itself installed
there. Instead, the user must pass --user in all cases to install
packages to the user site packages.
This behavior now matches that of "pip install". To configure
an environment to always install to the user site packages, consider
using the "install-dir" and "scripts-dir" parameters to easy_install
through an appropriate distutils config file.

13.0.2

Issue 359: Include pytest.ini in the sdist so invocation of py.test on the
sdist honors the pytest configuration.

13.0.1

Re-release of 13.0. Intermittent connectivity issues caused the release
process to fail and PyPI uploads no longer accept files for 13.0.

13.0

Issue 356: Back out BB Pull Request 119 as it requires Setuptools 10 or later
as the source during an upgrade.

Removed build_py class from setup.py. According to 892f439d216e, this
functionality was added to support upgrades from old Distribute versions,
0.6.5 and 0.6.6.

12.4

BB Pull Request 119: Restore writing of setup_requires to metadata
(previously added in 8.4 and removed in 9.0).

12.3

Documentation is now linked using the rst.linker package.

Fix setuptools.command.easy_install.extract_wininst_cfg()
with Python 2.6 and 2.7.

Issue 354. Added documentation on building setuptools
documentation.

12.2

Issue 345: Unload all modules under pkg_resources during
ez_setup.use_setuptools().

Issue 336: Removed deprecation from ez_setup.use_setuptools,
as it is clearly still used by buildout's bootstrap. ez_setup
remains deprecated for use by individual packages.

Simplified implementation of ez_setup.use_setuptools.

12.1

BB Pull Request 118: Soften warning for non-normalized versions in
Distribution.

12.0.5

Issue 339: Correct Attribute reference in cant_write_to_target.

Issue 336: Deprecated ez_setup.use_setuptools.

12.0.4

Issue 335: Fix script header generation on Windows.

12.0.3

Fixed incorrect class attribute in install_scripts. Tests would be nice.

12.0.2

Issue 331: Fixed install_scripts command on Windows systems corrupting
the header.

12.0.1

Restore setuptools.command.easy_install.sys_executable for pbr
compatibility. For the future, tools should construct a CommandSpec
explicitly.

12.0

Issue 188: Setuptools now support multiple entities in the value for
build.executable, such that an executable of "/usr/bin/env my-python" may
be specified. This means that systems with a specified executable whose name
has spaces in the path must be updated to escape or quote that value.

Deprecated easy_install.ScriptWriter.get_writer, replaced by .best()
with slightly different semantics (no force_windows flag).

11.3.1

Issue 327: Formalize and restore support for any printable character in an
entry point name.

11.3

Expose EntryPoint.resolve in place of EntryPoint._load, implementing the
simple, non-requiring load. Deprecated all uses of EntryPoint._load
except for calling with no parameters, which is just a shortcut for
ep.require(); ep.resolve();.

Apps currently invoking ep.load(require=False) should instead do the
following if wanting to avoid the deprecating warning::

getattr(ep, "resolve", lambda: ep.load(require=False))()

11.2

Pip 2326: Report deprecation warning at stacklevel 2 for easier diagnosis.

11.1

Issue 281: Since Setuptools 6.1 (Issue 268), a ValueError would be raised
in certain cases where VersionConflict was raised with two arguments, which
occurred in pkg_resources.WorkingSet.find. This release adds support
for indicating the dependent packages while maintaining support for
a VersionConflict when no dependent package context is known. New unit tests
now capture the expected interface.

11.0

Interop 3: Upgrade to Packaging 15.0; updates to PEP 440 so that >1.7 does
not exclude 1.7.1 but does exclude 1.7.0 and 1.7.0.post1.

10.2.1

Issue 323: Fix regression in entry point name parsing.

10.2

Deprecated use of EntryPoint.load(require=False). Passing a boolean to a
function to select behavior is an anti-pattern. Instead use
Entrypoint._load().

Substantial refactoring of all unit tests. Tests are now much leaner and
re-use a lot of fixtures and contexts for better clarity of purpose.

10.1

Issue 320: Added a compatibility implementation of
sdist._default_revctrl
so that systems relying on that interface do not fail (namely, Ubuntu 12.04
and similar Debian releases).

10.0.1

Issue 319: Fixed issue installing pure distutils packages.

10.0

Issue 313: Removed built-in support for subversion. Projects wishing to
retain support for subversion will need to use a third party library. The
extant implementation is being ported to setuptools_svn <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools_svn>_.

Issue 315: Updated setuptools to hide its own loaded modules during
installation of another package. This change will enable setuptools to
upgrade (or downgrade) itself even when its own metadata and implementation
change.

9.1

Prefer vendored packaging library as recommended <https://github.com/jaraco/setuptools/commit/170657b68f4b92e7e1bf82f5e19a831f5744af67commitcomment-9109448>_.

9.0.1

Issue 312: Restored presence of pkg_resources API tests (doctest) to sdist.

9.0

Issue 314: Disabled support for setup_requires metadata to avoid issue
where Setuptools was unable to upgrade over earlier versions.

8.4

BB Pull Request 106: Now write setup_requires metadata.

8.3

Issue 311: Decoupled pkg_resources from setuptools once again.
pkg_resources is now a package instead of a module.

8.2.1

Issue 306: Suppress warnings about Version format except in select scenarios
(such as installation).

8.2

BB Pull Request 85: Search egg-base when adding egg-info to manifest.

8.1

Upgrade packaging to 14.5, giving preference to "rc" as designator for
release candidates over "c".

PEP-440 warnings are now raised as their own class,
pkg_resources.PEP440Warning, instead of RuntimeWarning.

Disabled warnings on empty versions.

8.0.4

Upgrade packaging to 14.4, fixing an error where there is a
different result for if 2.0.5 is contained within >2.0dev and >2.0.dev even
though normalization rules should have made them equal.

Issue 296: Add warning when a version is parsed as legacy. This warning will
make it easier for developers to recognize deprecated version numbers.

8.0.3

Issue 296: Restored support for __hash__ on parse_version results.

8.0.2

Issue 296: Restored support for __getitem__ and sort operations on
parse_version result.

8.0.1

Issue 296: Restore support for iteration over parse_version result, but
deprecated that usage with a warning. Fixes failure with buildout.

8.0

Implement PEP 440 within
pkg_resources and setuptools. This change
deprecates some version numbers such that they will no longer be installable
without using the === escape hatch. See the changes to test_resources <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/commits/dcd552da643c4448056de84c73d56da6d70769d5chg-setuptools/tests/test_resources.py>_
for specific examples of version numbers and specifiers that are no longer
supported. Setuptools now "vendors" the packaging <https://github.com/pypa/packaging>_ library.

7.0

Issue 80, Issue 209: Eggs that are downloaded for setup_requires,
test_requires, etc. are now placed in a ./.eggs directory instead of
directly in the current directory. This choice of location means the files
can be readily managed (removed, ignored). Additionally,
later phases or invocations of setuptools will not detect the package as
already installed and ignore it for permanent install (See 209).

This change is indicated as backward-incompatible as installations that
depend on the installation in the current directory will need to account for
the new location. Systems that ignore *.egg will probably need to be
adapted to ignore .eggs. The files will need to be manually moved or
will be retrieved again. Most use cases will require no attention.

6.1

Issue 268: When resolving package versions, a VersionConflict now reports
which package previously required the conflicting version.

6.0.2

Issue 262: Fixed regression in pip install due to egg-info directories
being omitted. Re-opens Issue 118.

6.0.1

Issue 259: Fixed regression with namespace package handling on single version, externally managed installs.

6.0

Issue 100: When building a distribution, Setuptools will no longer match
default files using platform-dependent case sensitivity, but rather will
only match the files if their case matches exactly. As a result, on Windows
and other case-insensitive file systems, files with names such as
'readme.txt' or 'README.TXT' will be omitted from the distribution and a
warning will be issued indicating that 'README.txt' was not found. Other
filenames affected are:

README.rst

README

setup.cfg

setup.py (or the script name)

test/test*.py

Any users producing distributions with filenames that match those above
case-insensitively, but not case-sensitively, should rename those files in
their repository for better portability.

BB Pull Request 72: When using single_version_externally_managed, the
exclusion list now includes Python 3.2 __pycache__ entries.

BB Pull Request 76 and BB Pull Request 78: lines in top_level.txt are now
ordered deterministically.

Issue 118: The egg-info directory is now no longer included in the list
of outputs.

Issue 258: Setuptools now patches distutils msvc9compiler to
recognize the specially-packaged compiler package for easy extension module
support on Python 2.6, 2.7, and 3.2.

5.8

Issue 237: pkg_resources now uses explicit detection of Python 2 vs.
Python 3, supporting environments where builtins have been patched to make
Python 3 look more like Python 2.

5.7

Issue 240: Based on real-world performance measures against 5.4, zip
manifests are now cached in all circumstances. The
PKG_RESOURCES_CACHE_ZIP_MANIFESTS environment variable is no longer
relevant. The observed "memory increase" referenced in the 5.4 release
notes and detailed in Issue 154 was likely not an increase over the status
quo, but rather only an increase over not storing the zip info at all.

5.6

Issue 242: Use absolute imports in svn_utils to avoid issues if the
installing package adds an xml module to the path.

5.5.1

Issue 239: Fix typo in 5.5 such that fix did not take.

5.5

Issue 239: Setuptools now includes the setup_requires directive on
Distribution objects and validates the syntax just like install_requires
and tests_require directives.

5.4.2

Issue 236: Corrected regression in execfile implementation for Python 2.6.

5.4.1

Python 7776: (ssl_support) Correct usage of host for validation when
tunneling for HTTPS.

5.4

Issue 154: pkg_resources will now cache the zip manifests rather than
re-processing the same file from disk multiple times, but only if the
environment variable PKG_RESOURCES_CACHE_ZIP_MANIFESTS is set. Clients
that package many modules in the same zip file will see some improvement
in startup time by enabling this feature. This feature is not enabled by
default because it causes a substantial increase in memory usage.

5.3

Issue 185: Make svn tagging work on the new style SVN metadata.
Thanks cazabon!

Prune revision control directories (e.g .svn) from base path
as well as sub-directories.

5.2

Added a Developer Guide <https://pythonhosted.org/setuptools/developer-guide.html>_ to the official
documentation.

Some code refactoring and cleanup was done with no intended behavioral
changes.

During install_egg_info, the generated lines for namespace package .pth
files are now processed even during a dry run.

5.1

Issue 202: Implemented more robust cache invalidation for the ZipImporter,
building on the work in Issue 168. Special thanks to Jurko Gospodnetic and
PJE.

5.0.2

Issue 220: Restored script templates.

5.0.1

Renamed script templates to end with .tmpl now that they no longer need
to be processed by 2to3. Fixes spurious syntax errors during build/install.

5.0

Issue 218: Re-release of 3.8.1 to signal that it supersedes 4.x.

Incidentally, script templates were updated not to include the triple-quote
escaping.

4.0

Issue 210: setup.py develop now copies scripts in binary mode rather
than text mode, matching the behavior of the install command.

3.8

Extend Issue 197 workaround to include all Python 3 versions prior to
3.2.2.

3.7.1

Issue 213: Use legacy StringIO behavior for compatibility under pbr.

Issue 218: Setuptools 3.8.1 superseded 4.0.1, and 4.x was removed
from the available versions to install.

3.7

Issue 193: Improved handling of Unicode filenames when building manifests.

3.6

Issue 203: Honor proxy settings for Powershell downloader in the bootstrap
routine.

3.5.2

Issue 168: More robust handling of replaced zip files and stale caches.
Fixes ZipImportError complaining about a 'bad local header'.

3.5.1

Issue 199: Restored install._install for compatibility with earlier
NumPy versions.

3.5

Issue 195: Follow symbolic links in find_packages (restoring behavior
broken in 3.4).

Issue 197: On Python 3.1, PKG-INFO is now saved in a UTF-8 encoding instead
of sys.getpreferredencoding to match the behavior on Python 2.6-3.4.

Issue 192: Preferred bootstrap location is now
https://bootstrap.pypa.io/ez_setup.py (mirrored from former location).

3.4.4

Issue 184: Correct failure where find_package over-matched packages
when directory traversal isn't short-circuited.

3.4.3

Issue 183: Really fix test command with Python 3.1.

3.4.2

Issue 183: Fix additional regression in test command on Python 3.1.

3.4.1

Issue 180: Fix regression in test command not caught by py.test-run tests.

3.4

Issue 176: Add parameter to the test command to support a custom test
runner: --test-runner or -r.

Issue 177: Now assume most common invocation to install command on
platforms/environments without stack support (issuing a warning). Setuptools
now installs naturally on IronPython. Behavior on CPython should be
unchanged.

3.3

Add include parameter to setuptools.find_packages().

3.2

BB Pull Request 39: Add support for C++ targets from Cython .pyx files.

Issue 162: Update dependency on certifi to 1.0.1.

Issue 164: Update dependency on wincertstore to 0.2.

3.1

Issue 161: Restore Features functionality to allow backward compatibility
(for Features) until the uses of that functionality is sufficiently removed.

3.0.2

Correct typo in previous bugfix.

3.0.1

Issue 157: Restore support for Python 2.6 in bootstrap script where
zipfile.ZipFile does not yet have support for context managers.

3.0

Issue 125: Prevent Subversion support from creating a ~/.subversion
directory just for checking the presence of a Subversion repository.

Issue 12: Namespace packages are now imported lazily. That is, the mere
declaration of a namespace package in an egg on sys.path no longer
causes it to be imported when pkg_resources is imported. Note that this
change means that all of a namespace package's __init__.py files must
include a declare_namespace() call in order to ensure that they will be
handled properly at runtime. In 2.x it was possible to get away without
including the declaration, but only at the cost of forcing namespace
packages to be imported early, which 3.0 no longer does.

Issue 148: When building (bdist_egg), setuptools no longer adds
__init__.py files to namespace packages. Any packages that rely on this
behavior will need to create __init__.py files and include the
declare_namespace().

Issue 7: Setuptools itself is now distributed as a zip archive in addition to
tar archive. ez_setup.py now uses zip archive. This approach avoids the potential
security vulnerabilities presented by use of tar archives in ez_setup.py.
It also leverages the security features added to ZipFile.extract in Python 2.7.4.

Issue 65: Removed deprecated Features functionality.

BB Pull Request 28: Remove backport of _bytecode_filenames which is
available in Python 2.6 and later, but also has better compatibility with
Python 3 environments.

Issue 156: Fix spelling of PYVENV_LAUNCHER variable.

2.2

Issue 141: Restored fix for allowing setup_requires dependencies to
override installed dependencies during setup.

Issue 128: Fixed issue where only the first dependency link was honored
in a distribution where multiple dependency links were supplied.

2.1.2

Issue 144: Read long_description using codecs module to avoid errors
installing on systems where LANG=C.

2.1.1

Issue 139: Fix regression in re_finder for CVS repos (and maybe Git repos
as well).

2.1

Issue 129: Suppress inspection of *.whl files when searching for files
in a zip-imported file.

Issue 131: Fix RuntimeError when constructing an egg fetcher.

2.0.2

Fix NameError during installation with Python implementations (e.g. Jython)
not containing parser module.

Fix NameError in sdist:re_finder.

2.0.1

Issue 124: Fixed error in list detection in upload_docs.

2.0

Issue 121: Exempt lib2to3 pickled grammars from DirectorySandbox.

Issue 41: Dropped support for Python 2.4 and Python 2.5. Clients requiring
setuptools for those versions of Python should use setuptools 1.x.

Removed setuptools.command.easy_install.HAS_USER_SITE. Clients
expecting this boolean variable should use site.ENABLE_USER_SITE
instead.

Removed pkg_resources.ImpWrapper. Clients that expected this class
should use pkgutil.ImpImporter instead.

1.4.2

Issue 116: Correct TypeError when reading a local package index on Python
3.

1.4.1

Issue 114: Use sys.getfilesystemencoding for decoding config in
bdist_wininst distributions.

Issue 105 and Issue 113: Establish a more robust technique for
determining the terminal encoding::

Try getpreferredencoding

If that returns US_ASCII or None, try the encoding from
getdefaultlocale. If that encoding was a "fallback" because Python
could not figure it out from the environment or OS, encoding remains
unresolved.

If the encoding is resolved, then make sure Python actually implements
the encoding.

On the event of an error or unknown codec, revert to fallbacks
(UTF-8 on Darwin, ASCII on everything else).

On the encoding is 'mac-roman' on Darwin, use UTF-8 as 'mac-roman' was
a bug on older Python releases.

On a side note, it would seem that the encoding only matters for when SVN
does not yet support --xml and when getting repository and svn version
numbers. The --xml technique should yield UTF-8 according to some
messages on the SVN mailing lists. So if the version numbers are always
7-bit ASCII clean, it may be best to only support the file parsing methods
for legacy SVN releases and support for SVN without the subprocess command
would simple go away as support for the older SVNs does.

1.4

Issue 27: easy_install will now use credentials from .pypirc if
present for connecting to the package index.

BB Pull Request 21: Omit unwanted newlines in package_index._encode_auth
when the username/password pair length indicates wrapping.

1.3.2

Issue 99: Fix filename encoding issues in SVN support.

1.3.1

Remove exuberant warning in SVN support when SVN is not used.

1.3

Address security vulnerability in SSL match_hostname check as reported in
Python 17997.

Prefer backports.ssl_match_hostname <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/backports.ssl_match_hostname>_ for backport
implementation if present.

Correct NameError in ssl_support module (socket.error).

1.2

Issue 26: Add support for SVN 1.7. Special thanks to Philip Thiem for the
contribution.

Issue 93: Wheels are now distributed with every release. Note that as
reported in Issue 108, as of Pip 1.4, scripts aren't installed properly
from wheels. Therefore, if using Pip to install setuptools from a wheel,
the easy_install command will not be available.

Setuptools "natural" launcher support, introduced in 1.0, is now officially
supported.

1.1.7

Fixed behavior of NameError handling in 'script template (dev).py' (script
launcher for 'develop' installs).

ez_setup.py now ensures partial downloads are cleaned up following
a failed download.

Distribute 363 and Issue 55: Skip an sdist test that fails on locales
other than UTF-8.

1.1.6

Distribute 349: sandbox.execfile now opens the target file in binary
mode, thus honoring a BOM in the file when compiled.

1.1.5

Issue 69: Second attempt at fix (logic was reversed).

1.1.4

Issue 77: Fix error in upload command (Python 2.4).

1.1.3

Fix NameError in previous patch.

1.1.2

Issue 69: Correct issue where 404 errors are returned for URLs with
fragments in them (such as egg=).

1.1.1

Issue 75: Add --insecure option to ez_setup.py to accommodate
environments where a trusted SSL connection cannot be validated.

Issue 76: Fix AttributeError in upload command with Python 2.4.

1.1

Issue 71 (Distribute 333): EasyInstall now puts less emphasis on the
condition when a host is blocked via --allow-hosts.

Issue 72: Restored Python 2.4 compatibility in ez_setup.py.

1.0

Issue 60: On Windows, Setuptools supports deferring to another launcher,
such as Vinay Sajip's pylauncher <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/pylauncher>_
(included with Python 3.3) to launch console and GUI scripts and not install
its own launcher executables. This experimental functionality is currently
only enabled if the SETUPTOOLS_LAUNCHER environment variable is set to
"natural". In the future, this behavior may become default, but only after
it has matured and seen substantial adoption. The SETUPTOOLS_LAUNCHER
also accepts "executable" to force the default behavior of creating launcher
executables.

Issue 63: Bootstrap script (ez_setup.py) now prefers Powershell, curl, or
wget for retrieving the Setuptools tarball for improved security of the
install. The script will still fall back to a simple urlopen on
platforms that do not have these tools.

Issue 65: Deprecated the Features functionality.

Issue 52: In VerifyingHTTPSConn, handle a tunnelled (proxied)
connection.

Backward-Incompatible Changes

This release includes a couple of backward-incompatible changes, but most if
not all users will find 1.0 a drop-in replacement for 0.9.

Issue 50: Normalized API of environment marker support. Specifically,
removed line number and filename from SyntaxErrors when returned from
pkg_resources.invalid_marker. Any clients depending on the specific
string representation of exceptions returned by that function may need to
be updated to account for this change.

Issue 50: SyntaxErrors generated by pkg_resources.invalid_marker are
normalized for cross-implementation consistency.

Removed --ignore-conflicts-at-my-risk and --delete-conflicting
options to easy_install. These options have been deprecated since 0.6a11.

0.9.8

Issue 53: Fix NameErrors in _vcs_split_rev_from_url.

0.9.7

Issue 49: Correct AttributeError on PyPy where a hashlib.HASH object does
not have a .name attribute.

Issue 34: Documentation now refers to bootstrap script in code repository
referenced by bookmark.

Add underscore-separated keys to environment markers (markerlib).

0.9.6

Issue 44: Test failure on Python 2.4 when MD5 hash doesn't have a .name
attribute.

0.9.5

Python 17980: Fix security vulnerability in SSL certificate validation.

Issue 42: Fix regression where blank checksums would trigger an
AttributeError.

0.9.1

Distribute 386: Allow other positional and keyword arguments to os.open.

Corrected dependency on certifi mis-referenced in 0.9.

0.9

package_index now validates hashes other than MD5 in download links.

0.8

Code base now runs on Python 2.4 - Python 3.3 without Python 2to3
conversion.

0.7.8

Distribute 375: Yet another fix for yet another regression.

0.7.7

Distribute 375: Repair AttributeError created in last release (redo).

Issue 30: Added test for get_cache_path.

0.7.6

Distribute 375: Repair AttributeError created in last release.

0.7.5

Issue 21: Restore Python 2.4 compatibility in test_easy_install.

Distribute 375: Merged additional warning from Distribute 0.6.46.

Now honor the environment variable
SETUPTOOLS_DISABLE_VERSIONED_EASY_INSTALL_SCRIPT in addition to the now
deprecated DISTRIBUTE_DISABLE_VERSIONED_EASY_INSTALL_SCRIPT.

0.7.4

Issue 20: Fix comparison of parsed SVN version on Python 3.

0.7.3

Issue 1: Disable installation of Windows-specific files on non-Windows systems.

Use new sysconfig module with Python 2.7 or >=3.2.

0.7.2

Issue 14: Use markerlib when the parser module is not available.

Issue 10: ez_setup.py now uses HTTPS to download setuptools from PyPI.

0.7.1

Fix NameError (Issue 3) again - broken in bad merge.

0.7

Merged Setuptools and Distribute. See docs/merge.txt for details.

0.7b4

Issue 3: Fixed NameError in SSL support.

0.6.49

Move warning check in get_cache_path to follow the directory creation
to avoid errors when the cache path does not yet exist. Fixes the error
reported in Distribute 375.

0.6.48

Correct AttributeError in ResourceManager.get_cache_path introduced in
0.6.46 (redo).

0.6.47

Correct AttributeError in ResourceManager.get_cache_path introduced in
0.6.46.

0.6.46

Distribute 375: Issue a warning if the PYTHON_EGG_CACHE or otherwise
customized egg cache location specifies a directory that's group- or
world-writable.

0.6.45

Distribute 379: distribute_setup.py now traps VersionConflict as well,
restoring ability to upgrade from an older setuptools version.

0.6.44

distribute_setup.py has been updated to allow Setuptools 0.7 to
satisfy use_setuptools.

0.6.43

Distribute 378: Restore support for Python 2.4 Syntax (regression in 0.6.42).

0.6.42

External links finder no longer yields duplicate links.

Distribute 337: Moved site.py to setuptools/site-patch.py (graft of very old
patch from setuptools trunk which inspired PR 31).

0.6.41

Distribute 27: Use public api for loading resources from zip files rather than
the private method _zip_directory_cache.

Added a new function easy_install.get_win_launcher which may be used by
third-party libraries such as buildout to get a suitable script launcher.

0.6.40

Distribute 376: brought back cli.exe and gui.exe that were deleted in the
previous release.

0.6.39

Add support for console launchers on ARM platforms.

Fix possible issue in GUI launchers where the subsystem was not supplied to
the linker.

Launcher build script now refactored for robustness.

Distribute 375: Resources extracted from a zip egg to the file system now also
check the contents of the file against the zip contents during each
invocation of get_resource_filename.

0.6.38

Distribute 371: The launcher manifest file is now installed properly.

0.6.37

Distribute 143: Launcher scripts, including easy_install itself, are now
accompanied by a manifest on 32-bit Windows environments to avoid the
Installer Detection Technology and thus undesirable UAC elevation described
in this Microsoft article <http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc709628%28WS.10%29.aspx>_.

0.6.36

BB Pull Request 35: In Buildout 64, it was reported that
under Python 3, installation of distutils scripts could attempt to copy
the __pycache__ directory as a file, causing an error, apparently only
under Windows. Easy_install now skips all directories when processing
metadata scripts.

0.6.35

Note this release is backward-incompatible with distribute 0.6.23-0.6.34 in
how it parses version numbers.

Distribute 278: Restored compatibility with distribute 0.6.22 and setuptools
0.6. Updated the documentation to match more closely with the version
parsing as intended in setuptools 0.6.

0.6.34

Distribute 341: 0.6.33 fails to build under Python 2.4.

0.6.33

Fix 2 errors with Jython 2.5.

Fix 1 failure with Jython 2.5 and 2.7.

Disable workaround for Jython scripts on Linux systems.

Distribute 336: setup.py no longer masks failure exit code when tests fail.

Fix issue in pkg_resources where try/except around a platform-dependent
import would trigger hook load failures on Mercurial. See pull request 32
for details.

Distribute 341: Fix a ResourceWarning.

0.6.32

Fix test suite with Python 2.6.

Fix some DeprecationWarnings and ResourceWarnings.

Distribute 335: Backed out setup_requires superceding installed requirements
until regression can be addressed.

0.6.31

Distribute 303: Make sure the manifest only ever contains UTF-8 in Python 3.

Distribute 329: Properly close files created by tests for compatibility with
Jython.

Work around Jython 1980 and Jython 1981.

Distribute 334: Provide workaround for packages that reference sys.__stdout__
such as numpy does. This change should address
virtualenv 359 <https://github.com/pypa/virtualenv/issues/359>_ as long
as the system encoding is UTF-8 or the IO encoding is specified in the
environment, i.e.::

PYTHONIOENCODING=utf8 pip install numpy

Fix for encoding issue when installing from Windows executable on Python 3.

Distribute 323: Allow setup_requires requirements to supercede installed
requirements. Added some new keyword arguments to existing pkg_resources
methods. Also had to updated how path is handled for namespace packages
to ensure that when a new egg distribution containing a namespace package is
placed on sys.path, the entries in path are found in the same order they
would have been in had that egg been on the path when pkg_resources was
first imported.

0.6.30

Distribute 328: Clean up temporary directories in distribute_setup.py.

Fix fatal bug in distribute_setup.py.

0.6.29

BB Pull Request 14: Honor file permissions in zip files.

Distribute 327: Merged pull request 24 to fix a dependency problem with pip.

Merged pull request 23 to fix virtualenv doesn't notice when installing distribute fails pypa/virtualenv#301.

If Sphinx is installed, the upload_docs command now runs build_sphinx
to produce uploadable documentation.

Distribute 326: upload_docs provided mangled auth credentials under Python 3.

Distribute 320: Fix check for "createable" in distribute_setup.py.

Distribute 305: Remove a warning that was triggered during normal operations.

Distribute 311: Print metadata in UTF-8 independent of platform.

Distribute 303: Read manifest file with UTF-8 encoding under Python 3.

Distribute 301: Allow to run tests of namespace packages when using 2to3.

Distribute 304: Prevent import loop in site.py under Python 3.3.

Distribute 283: Reenable scanning of *.pyc / *.pyo files on Python 3.3.

Distribute 299: The develop command didn't work on Python 3, when using 2to3,
as the egg link would go to the Python 2 source. Linking to the 2to3'd code
in build/lib makes it work, although you will have to rebuild the module
before testing it.

Distribute 306: Even if 2to3 is used, we build in-place under Python 2.

Distribute 307: Prints the full path when .svn/entries is broken.

Distribute 313: Support for sdist subcommands (Python 2.7)

Distribute 314: test_local_index() would fail an OS X.

Distribute 310: Non-ascii characters in a namespace init.py causes errors.

Distribute 218: Improved documentation on behavior of package_data and
include_package_data. Files indicated by package_data are now included
in the manifest.

Distribute 147: respect the sys.dont_write_bytecode flag

0.6.10

Reverted change made for the DistributionNotFound exception because

distribution.

0.6.9

Distribute 90: unknown setuptools version can be added in the working set

Distribute 87: setupt.py doesn't try to convert distribute_setup.py anymore
Initial Patch by arfrever.

Distribute 89: added a side bar with a download link to the doc.

Distribute 86: fixed missing sentence in pkg_resources doc.

Added a nicer error message when a DistributionNotFound is raised.

Distribute 80: test_develop now works with Python 3.1

Distribute 93: upload_docs now works if there is an empty sub-directory.

Distribute 70: exec bit on non-exec files

Distribute 99: now the standalone easy_install command doesn't uses a
"setup.cfg" if any exists in the working directory. It will use it
only if triggered by install_requires from a setup.py call
(install, develop, etc).

Distribute 101: Allowing os.devnull in Sandbox

Distribute 92: Fixed the "no eggs" found error with MacPort
(platform.mac_ver() fails)

Distribute 103: test_get_script_header_jython_workaround not run
anymore under py3 with C or POSIX local. Contributed by Arfrever.

Distribute 104: remvoved the assertion when the installation fails,
with a nicer message for the end user.

Distribute 100: making sure there's no SandboxViolation when
the setup script patches setuptools.

0.6.8

Added "check_packages" in dist. (added in Setuptools 0.6c11)

Fixed the DONT_PATCH_SETUPTOOLS state.

0.6.7

Distribute 58: Added --user support to the develop command

Distribute 11: Generated scripts now wrap their call to the script entry point
in the standard "if name == 'main'"

Added the 'DONT_PATCH_SETUPTOOLS' environment variable, so virtualenv
can drive an installation that doesn't patch a global setuptools.

Reviewed unladen-swallow specific change from
http://code.google.com/p/unladen-swallow/source/detail?spec=svn875&r=719
and determined that it no longer applies. Distribute should work fine with
Unladen Swallow 2009Q3.

Distribute 21: Allow PackageIndex.open_url to gracefully handle all cases of a
httplib.HTTPException instead of just InvalidURL and BadStatusLine.

Removed virtual-python.py from this distribution and updated documentation
to point to the actively maintained virtualenv instead.

Distribute 64: use_setuptools no longer rebuilds the distribute egg every
time it is run

use_setuptools now properly respects the requested version

use_setuptools will no longer try to import a distribute egg for the
wrong Python version

Distribute 74: no_fake should be True by default.

Distribute 72: avoid a bootstrapping issue with easy_install -U

0.6.6

Unified the bootstrap file so it works on both py2.x and py3k without 2to3
(patch by Holger Krekel)

0.6.5

Distribute 65: cli.exe and gui.exe are now generated at build time,
depending on the platform in use.

Distribute 67: Fixed doc typo (PEP 381/PEP 382).

Distribute no longer shadows setuptools if we require a 0.7-series
setuptools. And an error is raised when installing a 0.7 setuptools with
distribute.

When run from within buildout, no attempt is made to modify an existing
setuptools egg, whether in a shared egg directory or a system setuptools.

Fixed a hole in sandboxing allowing builtin file to write outside of
the sandbox.

0.6.4

Added the generation of distribute_setup_3k.py during the release.
This closes Distribute 52.

Added an upload_docs command to easily upload project documentation to
PyPI's https://pythonhosted.org. This close issue Distribute 56.

Fixed a bootstrap bug on the use_setuptools() API.

0.6.3

setuptools

Fixed a bunch of calls to file() that caused crashes on Python 3.

bootstrapping

Fixed a bug in sorting that caused bootstrap to fail on Python 3.

0.6.2

setuptools

Added Python 3 support; see docs/python3.txt.
This closes Old Setuptools 39.

Added option to run 2to3 automatically when installing on Python 3.
This closes issue Distribute 31.

Fixed invalid usage of requirement.parse, that broke develop -d.
This closes Old Setuptools 44.

Fixed script launcher for 64-bit Windows.
This closes Old Setuptools 2.

KeyError when compiling extensions.
This closes Old Setuptools 41.

bootstrapping

Fixed bootstrap not working on Windows. This closes issue Distribute 49.

Fixed 2.6 dependencies. This closes issue Distribute 50.

Make sure setuptools is patched when running through easy_install
This closes Old Setuptools 40.

0.6.1

setuptools

package_index.urlopen now catches BadStatusLine and malformed url errors.
This closes Distribute 16 and Distribute 18.

zip_ok is now False by default. This closes Old Setuptools 33.

Fixed invalid URL error catching. Old Setuptools 20.

Fixed invalid bootstraping with easy_install installation (Distribute 40).
Thanks to Florian Schulze for the help.

Removed buildout/bootstrap.py. A new repository will create a specific
bootstrap.py script.

bootstrapping

The boostrap process leave setuptools alone if detected in the system
and --root or --prefix is provided, but is not in the same location.
This closes Distribute 10.

0.6

setuptools

Packages required at build time where not fully present at install time.
This closes Distribute 12.

Protected against failures in tarfile extraction. This closes Distribute 10.

Made Jython api_tests.txt doctest compatible. This closes Distribute 7.

sandbox.py replaced builtin type file with builtin function open. This
closes Distribute 6.

Immediately close all file handles. This closes Distribute 3.

Added compatibility with Subversion 1.6. This references Distribute 1.

pkg_resources

Avoid a call to /usr/bin/sw_vers on OSX and use the official platform API
instead. Based on a patch from ronaldoussoren. This closes issue 5.

Fixed a SandboxViolation for mkdir that could occur in certain cases.
This closes Distribute 13.

Allow to find_on_path on systems with tight permissions to fail gracefully.
This closes Distribute 9.

Corrected inconsistency between documentation and code of add_entry.
This closes Distribute 8.

Immediately close all file handles. This closes Distribute 3.

easy_install

Immediately close all file handles. This closes Distribute 3.

0.6c12

Index URL now defaults to HTTPS.

Added experimental environment marker support. Now clients may designate a
PEP-426 environment marker for "extra" dependencies. Setuptools uses this
feature in setup.py for optional SSL and certificate validation support
on older platforms. Based on Distutils-SIG discussions, the syntax is
somewhat tentative. There should probably be a PEP with a firmer spec before
the feature should be considered suitable for use.

Added support for SSL certificate validation when installing packages from
an HTTPS service.

0.6c9

Fixed a missing files problem when using Windows source distributions on
non-Windows platforms, due to distutils not handling manifest file line
endings correctly.

Updated Pyrex support to work with Pyrex 0.9.6 and higher.

Minor changes for Jython compatibility, including skipping tests that can't
work on Jython.

Fixed not installing eggs in install_requires if they were also used for
setup_requires or tests_require.

Fixed not fetching eggs in install_requires when running tests.

Allow ez_setup.use_setuptools() to upgrade existing setuptools
installations when called from a standalone setup.py.

Added a warning if a namespace package is declared, but its parent package
is not also declared as a namespace.

Support Subversion 1.5

Removed use of deprecated md5 module if hashlib is available

Fixed bdist_wininst upload trying to upload the .exe twice

Fixed bdist_egg putting a native_libs.txt in the source package's
.egg-info, when it should only be in the built egg's EGG-INFO.

Ensure that _full_name is set on all shared libs before extensions are
checked for shared lib usage. (Fixes a bug in the experimental shared
library build support.)

Fix to allow unpacked eggs containing native libraries to fail more
gracefully under Google App Engine (with an ImportError loading the
C-based module, instead of getting a NameError).

0.6c7

Fixed distutils.filelist.findall() crashing on broken symlinks, and
egg_info command failing on new, uncommitted SVN directories.

Fix import problems with nested namespace packages installed via
--root or --single-version-externally-managed, due to the
parent package not having the child package as an attribute.

0.6c6

Added --egg-path option to develop command, allowing you to force
.egg-link files to use relative paths (allowing them to be shared across
platforms on a networked drive).

Fix not building binary RPMs correctly.

Fix "eggsecutables" (such as setuptools' own egg) only being runnable with
bash-compatible shells.

Fix ! parsing problems in Windows .exe script wrappers, when there
was whitespace inside a quoted argument or at the end of the ! line
(a regression introduced in 0.6c4).

Fix test command possibly failing if an older version of the project
being tested was installed on sys.path ahead of the test source
directory.

Fix find_packages() treating ez_setup and directories with . in
their names as packages.

0.6c5

Fix uploaded bdist_rpm packages being described as bdist_egg
packages under Python versions less than 2.5.

Fix uploaded bdist_wininst packages being described as suitable for
"any" version by Python 2.5, even if a --target-version was specified.

0.6c4

Overhauled Windows script wrapping to support bdist_wininst better.
Scripts installed with bdist_wininst will always use !python.exe or
!pythonw.exe as the executable name (even when built on non-Windows
platforms!), and the wrappers will look for the executable in the script's
parent directory (which should find the right version of Python).

Fix upload command not uploading files built by bdist_rpm or
bdist_wininst under Python 2.3 and 2.4.

Add support for "eggsecutable" headers: a !/bin/sh script that is
prepended to an .egg file to allow it to be run as a script on Unix-ish
platforms. (This is mainly so that setuptools itself can have a single-file
installer on Unix, without doing multiple downloads, dealing with firewalls,
etc.)

Fix problem with empty revision numbers in Subversion 1.4 entries files

Use cross-platform relative paths in easy-install.pth when doing
develop and the source directory is a subdirectory of the installation
target directory.

Fix a problem installing eggs with a system packaging tool if the project
contained an implicit namespace package; for example if the setup()
listed a namespace package foo.bar without explicitly listing foo
as a namespace package.

0.6c3

Fixed breakages caused by Subversion 1.4's new "working copy" format

0.6c2

The ez_setup module displays the conflicting version of setuptools (and
its installation location) when a script requests a version that's not
available.

Running setup.py develop on a setuptools-using project will now install
setuptools if needed, instead of only downloading the egg.

0.6c1

Fixed AttributeError when trying to download a setup_requires
dependency when a distribution lacks a dependency_links setting.

Made zip-safe and not-zip-safe flag files contain a single byte, so
as to play better with packaging tools that complain about zero-length
files.

Made setup.py develop respect the --no-deps option, which it
previously was ignoring.

Support extra_path option to setup() when install is run in
backward-compatibility mode.

Source distributions now always include a setup.cfg file that explicitly
sets egg_info options such that they produce an identical version number
to the source distribution's version number. (Previously, the default
version number could be different due to the use of --tag-date, or if
the version was overridden on the command line that built the source
distribution.)

0.6b4

Fix register not obeying name/version set by egg_info command, if
egg_info wasn't explicitly run first on the same command line.

Added --no-date and --no-svn-revision options to egg_info
command, to allow suppressing tags configured in setup.cfg.

Fixed redundant warnings about missing README file(s); it should now
appear only if you are actually a source distribution.

0.6b3

Fix bdist_egg not including files in subdirectories of .egg-info.

Allow .py files found by the include_package_data option to be
automatically included. Remove duplicate data file matches if both
include_package_data and package_data are used to refer to the same
files.

0.6b1

Strip module from the end of compiled extension modules when computing
the name of a .py loader/wrapper. (Python's import machinery ignores
this suffix when searching for an extension module.)

0.6a11

Added test_loader keyword to support custom test loaders

Added setuptools.file_finders entry point group to allow implementing
revision control plugins.

Added --identity option to upload command.

Added dependency_links to allow specifying URLs for --find-links.

Enhanced test loader to scan packages as well as modules, and call
additional_tests() if present to get non-unittest tests.

Support namespace packages in conjunction with system packagers, by omitting
the installation of any __init__.py files for namespace packages, and
adding a special .pth file to create a working package in
sys.modules.

Made --single-version-externally-managed automatic when --root is
used, so that most system packagers won't require special support for
setuptools.

Fixed setup_requires, tests_require, etc. not using setup.cfg or
other configuration files for their option defaults when installing, and
also made the install use --multi-version mode so that the project
directory doesn't need to support .pth files.

MANIFEST.in is now forcibly closed when any errors occur while reading
it. Previously, the file could be left open and the actual error would be
masked by problems trying to remove the open file on Windows systems.

0.6a10

Fixed the develop command ignoring --find-links.

0.6a9

The sdist command no longer uses the traditional MANIFEST file to
create source distributions. MANIFEST.in is still read and processed,
as are the standard defaults and pruning. But the manifest is built inside
the project's .egg-info directory as SOURCES.txt, and it is rebuilt
every time the egg_info command is run.

Added the include_package_data keyword to setup(), allowing you to
automatically include any package data listed in revision control or
MANIFEST.in

Added the exclude_package_data keyword to setup(), allowing you to
trim back files included via the package_data and
include_package_data options.

Fixed --tag-svn-revision not working when run from a source
distribution.

Added warning for namespace packages with missing declare_namespace()

Added tests_require keyword to setup(), so that e.g. packages
requiring nose to run unit tests can make this dependency optional
unless the test command is run.

Made all commands that use easy_install respect its configuration
options, as this was causing some problems with setup.py install.

Added an unpack_directory() driver to setuptools.archive_util, so
that you can process a directory tree through a processing filter as if it
were a zipfile or tarfile.

Added an internal install_egg_info command to use as part of old-style
install operations, that installs an .egg-info directory with the
package.

Added a --single-version-externally-managed option to the install
command so that you can more easily wrap a "flat" egg in a system package.

Enhanced bdist_rpm so that it installs single-version eggs that
don't rely on a .pth file. The --no-egg option has been removed,
since all RPMs are now built in a more backwards-compatible format.

Support full roundtrip translation of eggs to and from bdist_wininst
format. Running bdist_wininst on a setuptools-based package wraps the
egg in an .exe that will safely install it as an egg (i.e., with metadata
and entry-point wrapper scripts), and easy_install can turn the .exe
back into an .egg file or directory and install it as such.

0.6a8

Fixed some problems building extensions when Pyrex was installed, especially
with Python 2.4 and/or packages using SWIG.

Made develop command accept all the same options as easy_install,
and use the easy_install command's configuration settings as defaults.

Made egg_info --tag-svn-revision fall back to extracting the revision
number from PKG-INFO in case it is being run on a source distribution of
a snapshot taken from a Subversion-based project.

Automatically detect .dll, .so and .dylib files that are being
installed as data, adding them to native_libs.txt automatically.

Fixed some problems with fresh checkouts of projects that don't include
.egg-info/PKG-INFO under revision control and put the project's source
code directly in the project directory. If such a package had any
requirements that get processed before the egg_info command can be run,
the setup scripts would fail with a "Missing 'Version:' header and/or
PKG-INFO file" error, because the egg runtime interpreted the unbuilt
metadata in a directory on sys.path (i.e. the current directory) as
being a corrupted egg. Setuptools now monkeypatches the distribution
metadata cache to pretend that the egg has valid version information, until
it has a chance to make it actually be so (via the egg_info command).

0.6a5

Fixed missing gui/cli .exe files in distribution. Fixed bugs in tests.

0.6a3

Added gui_scripts entry point group to allow installing GUI scripts
on Windows and other platforms. (The special handling is only for Windows;
other platforms are treated the same as for console_scripts.)

0.6a2

Added console_scripts entry point group to allow installing scripts
without the need to create separate script files. On Windows, console
scripts get an .exe wrapper so you can just type their name. On other
platforms, the scripts are written without a file extension.

0.6a1

Added support for building "old-style" RPMs that don't install an egg for
the target package, using a --no-egg option.

The build_ext command now works better when using the --inplace
option and multiple Python versions. It now makes sure that all extensions
match the current Python version, even if newer copies were built for a
different Python version.

The upload command no longer attaches an extra .zip when uploading
eggs, as PyPI now supports egg uploads without trickery.

The ez_setup script/module now displays a warning before downloading
the setuptools egg, and attempts to check the downloaded egg against an
internal MD5 checksum table.

Fixed the --tag-svn-revision option of egg_info not finding the
latest revision number; it was using the revision number of the directory
containing setup.py, not the highest revision number in the project.

Added eager_resources setup argument

The sdist command now recognizes Subversion "deleted file" entries and
does not include them in source distributions.

setuptools now embeds itself more thoroughly into the distutils, so that
other distutils extensions (e.g. py2exe, py2app) will subclass setuptools'
versions of things, rather than the native distutils ones.

Added entry_points and setup_requires arguments to setup();
setup_requires allows you to automatically find and download packages
that are needed in order to build your project (as opposed to running it).

setuptools now finds its commands, setup() argument validators, and
metadata writers using entry points, so that they can be extended by
third-party packages. See Creating distutils Extensions <http://pythonhosted.org/setuptools/setuptools.htmlcreating-distutils-extensions>_
for more details.

The vestigial depends command has been removed. It was never finished
or documented, and never would have worked without EasyInstall - which it
pre-dated and was never compatible with.

0.5a12

The zip-safety scanner now checks for modules that might be used with
python -m, and marks them as unsafe for zipping, since Python 2.4 can't
handle -m on zipped modules.

0.5a11

Fix breakage of the "develop" command that was caused by the addition of
--always-unzip to the easy_install command.

0.5a9

Include svn:externals directories in source distributions as well as
normal subversion-controlled files and directories.

Added exclude=patternlist option to setuptools.find_packages()

Changed --tag-svn-revision to include an "r" in front of the revision number
for better readability.

Added ability to build eggs without including source files (except for any
scripts, of course), using the --exclude-source-files option to
bdist_egg.

setup.py install now automatically detects when an "unmanaged" package
or module is going to be on sys.path ahead of a package being installed,
thereby preventing the newer version from being imported. If this occurs,
a warning message is output to sys.stderr, but installation proceeds
anyway. The warning message informs the user what files or directories
need deleting, and advises them they can also use EasyInstall (with the
--delete-conflicting option) to do it automatically.

The egg_info command now adds a top_level.txt file to the metadata
directory that lists all top-level modules and packages in the distribution.
This is used by the easy_install command to find possibly-conflicting
"unmanaged" packages when installing the distribution.

Added zip_safe and namespace_packages arguments to setup().
Added package analysis to determine zip-safety if the zip_safe flag
is not given, and advise the author regarding what code might need changing.

Fixed the swapped -d and -b options of bdist_egg.

0.5a8

The "egg_info" command now always sets the distribution metadata to "safe"
forms of the distribution name and version, so that distribution files will
be generated with parseable names (i.e., ones that don't include '-' in the
name or version). Also, this means that if you use the various --tag
options of "egg_info", any distributions generated will use the tags in the
version, not just egg distributions.

Added support for defining command aliases in distutils configuration files,
under the "[aliases]" section. To prevent recursion and to allow aliases to
call the command of the same name, a given alias can be expanded only once
per command-line invocation. You can define new aliases with the "alias"
command, either for the local, global, or per-user configuration.

Added "rotate" command to delete old distribution files, given a set of
patterns to match and the number of files to keep. (Keeps the most
recently-modified distribution files matching each pattern.)

Added "saveopts" command that saves all command-line options for the current
invocation to the local, global, or per-user configuration file. Useful for
setting defaults without having to hand-edit a configuration file.

Added a "setopt" command that sets a single option in a specified distutils
configuration file.

0.5a7

Added "upload" support for egg and source distributions, including a bug
fix for "upload" and a temporary workaround for lack of .egg support in
PyPI.

0.5a6

Beefed up the "sdist" command so that if you don't have a MANIFEST.in, it
will include all files under revision control (CVS or Subversion) in the
current directory, and it will regenerate the list every time you create a
source distribution, not just when you tell it to. This should make the
default "do what you mean" more often than the distutils' default behavior
did, while still retaining the old behavior in the presence of MANIFEST.in.

Fixed the "develop" command always updating .pth files, even if you
specified -n or --dry-run.

Slightly changed the format of the generated version when you use
--tag-build on the "egg_info" command, so that you can make tagged
revisions compare lower than the version specified in setup.py (e.g. by
using --tag-build=dev).

0.5a5

Added develop command to setuptools-based packages. This command
installs an .egg-link pointing to the package's source directory, and
script wrappers that execfile() the source versions of the package's
scripts. This lets you put your development checkout(s) on sys.path without
having to actually install them. (To uninstall the link, use
use setup.py develop --uninstall.)

Added egg_info command to setuptools-based packages. This command
just creates or updates the "projectname.egg-info" directory, without
building an egg. (It's used by the bdist_egg, test, and develop
commands.)

Enhanced the test command so that it doesn't install the package, but
instead builds any C extensions in-place, updates the .egg-info
metadata, adds the source directory to sys.path, and runs the tests
directly on the source. This avoids an "unmanaged" installation of the
package to site-packages or elsewhere.

Made easy_install a standard setuptools command, moving it from
the easy_install module to setuptools.command.easy_install. Note
that if you were importing or extending it, you must now change your imports
accordingly. easy_install.py is still installed as a script, but not as
a module.

0.5a4

Setup scripts using setuptools can now list their dependencies directly in
the setup.py file, without having to manually create a depends.txt file.
The install_requires and extras_require arguments to setup()
are used to create a dependencies file automatically. If you are manually
creating depends.txt right now, please switch to using these setup
arguments as soon as practical, because depends.txt support will be
removed in the 0.6 release cycle. For documentation on the new arguments,
see the setuptools.dist.Distribution class.

Setup scripts using setuptools now always install using easy_install
internally, for ease of uninstallation and upgrading.

0.5a1

Added support for "self-installation" bootstrapping. Packages can now
include ez_setup.py in their source distribution, and add the following
to their setup.py, in order to automatically bootstrap installation of
setuptools as part of their setup process::

from ez_setup import use_setuptools
use_setuptools()

from setuptools import setup
etc...

0.4a2

Added ez_setup.py installer/bootstrap script to make initial setuptools
installation easier, and to allow distributions using setuptools to avoid
having to include setuptools in their source distribution.

All downloads are now managed by the PackageIndex class (which is now
subclassable and replaceable), so that embedders can more easily override
download logic, give download progress reports, etc. The class has also
been moved to the new setuptools.package_index module.

The Installer class no longer handles downloading, manages a temporary
directory, or tracks the zip_ok option. Downloading is now handled
by PackageIndex, and Installer has become an easy_install
command class based on setuptools.Command.

There is a new setuptools.sandbox.run_setup() API to invoke a setup
script in a directory sandbox, and a new setuptools.archive_util module
with an unpack_archive() API. These were split out of EasyInstall to
allow reuse by other tools and applications.

setuptools.Command now supports reinitializing commands using keyword
arguments to set/reset options. Also, Command subclasses can now set
their command_consumes_arguments attribute to True in order to
receive an args option containing the rest of the command line.

0.3a2

Added new options to bdist_egg to allow tagging the egg's version number
with a subversion revision number, the current date, or an explicit tag
value. Run setup.py bdist_egg --help to get more information.
