v34.1.1 ------- * #953: More aggressively employ the compatibility issue originally added in #706. v34.1.0 ------- * #930: ``build_info`` now accepts two new parameters to optimize and customize the building of C libraries. v34.0.3 ------- * #947: Loosen restriction on the version of six required, restoring compatibility with environments relying on six 1.6.0 and later. v34.0.2 ------- * #882: Ensure extras are honored when building the working set. * #913: Fix issue in develop if package directory has a trailing slash. v34.0.1 ------- * #935: Fix glob syntax in graft. v34.0.0 ------- * #581: Instead of vendoring the growing list of dependencies that Setuptools requires to function, Setuptools now requires these dependencies just like any other project. Unlike other projects, however, Setuptools cannot rely on ``setup_requires`` to demand the dependencies it needs to install because its own machinery would be necessary to pull those dependencies if not present (a bootstrapping problem). As a result, Setuptools no longer supports self upgrade or installation in the general case. Instead, users are directed to use pip to install and upgrade using the ``wheel`` distributions of setuptools. Users are welcome to contrive other means to install or upgrade Setuptools using other means, such as pre-installing the Setuptools dependencies with pip or a bespoke bootstrap tool, but such usage is not recommended and is not supported. As discovered in #940, not all versions of pip will successfully install Setuptools from its pre-built wheel. If you encounter issues with "No module named six" or "No module named packaging", especially following a line "Running setup.py egg_info for package setuptools", then your pip is not new enough. There's an additional issue in pip where setuptools is upgraded concurrently with other source packages, described in pip #4253. The proposed workaround is to always upgrade Setuptools first prior to upgrading other packages that would upgrade Setuptools. |
